Reset Smart Sync To Online Only for All Files?

[ninjaVanish]

After finishing a few large projects, I am working to reduce the space used on my laptop. Is it possible to reset the smart sync status without having to right clicking on each folder? I wish to change the status of all current files to online only.

Thanks!

This 'accepted solution' doesn't work!

Hey @ianh1, thanks for joining us on this discussion. 

If you want to make all your local files online-only, try right-clicking on the Dropbox folder itself, and then selecting the relevant Smart Sync option. 

Give that a try and let me know if it does the trick for you.

Thanks for your prompt response but as I said it doesn't work

Then you need to explain WHY it doesn't work, because it's still the correct response.

Same problem

If I knew why it didn't work I would presumably be working for Dropbox support and not getting frustrated with functionality I am not getting but have paid for!
