I have been asked by Dropox to update their app now that I am on Ventura 13.4.1. Supposedly the Dropbox folder is moved to the "~/Library/CloudStorage" folder. I am unable to find the CloudStorage folder. It does not appear in the Library or anywhere else. Any ideas of why that is so?

It's a requirement of Apple. The update uses Apple's FileProvider API, which requires the Dropbox folder to be located in CloudStorage.
The problem is that there is no "~/Library/CloudStorage" folder to be found anywhere in my MAC. Where is it and where is the Dropbox folder?
@xibat, can you please try the suggestion of the last user in this thread (MikeThomas), and let me know if it helps at all?

Hmm, I see.
Do you keep pressing the Option key while clicking on the Go menu > Library on your device?

I have tried every possible method of looking into the Library where CloudStorage should be. I am certain that I am looking at the correct Library, as all the other files and folders that should be there do appear. I am giving up on using DropBox. Fortunately I had a good backup.
Hey @xibat - sorry to jump in here, but would it be OK if we reached out via email to have a further look internally at this point?
