Parallels VM (win11) can't find Dropbox files (Ventura Mac Studio)

Parallels VM (win11) can't find Dropbox files (Ventura Mac Studio)

Joel H.22

I'm setting up my new Mac Studio (VenturaOS).  Getting the Dropbox (and Google Drive) apps installed and the files downloaded was pretty straightforward.

 

But Parallels VM Win11 can't find the files, now that they've been moved to a "more secure location" (as the current phrase has it).

 

Has anyone else run into this problem?  Is there a fix?

Hey @Joel H.22, sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

 

Can you please let us know some additional information? For example, what is the version and the exact status of the desktop app as shown in your Windows 11 side of things? 

 

A screenshot of what's troubling you or any errors you might be getting, would be very helpful!

Hi, thanks for your reply.  Turns out it solved itself after all the sync operations were done and I rebooted! <whew!>
