Hello Mark.

It must be the latest as I downloaded it today.  
I cannot see the top toolbar to look for "about"

but the  Icon on the windows bottom toolbar shows 183.4.7058.

Does that help?

@Sharkman, have you tried reinstalling the Dropbox app on your computer, and the issue persists?

Hi @Sharkman, it'll sound trivial, but have you restarted your device at all?

 

Also, can you send me another full screenshot of how the top part of the menu is showing?

Hi Megan

Would you mind trying a more advanced reinstall of the app, @Sharkman?

Hi Hannah,

 

I followed all the Advanced Reinstall instructions to the dot and still get the same problems! 😕

No Menu Bar and no files showing! 😟

 

This is driving me nuts.

Hi @Sharkman, are you using more than one monitor on your machine? Do you have any custom DPI settings for your monitor?
