Since I updated and now use SmartSync the "recent files" is no longer showing the most recent files.

I'm having the same issue with my desktop app.

- Are you not seeing the Recents tab in general, or are you not seeing any files included in it?
- Are you referring to the desktop app, the mobile app, or the website?
- If you’re referring to the desktop app, could you please let me know what it reads when you click on it? Is it still syncing or is it up to date?
- Are you by any chance using Smart Sync on your files?

Me too! Struggling to work without it... e.g. 10 out of 107 files have synced - I have no way of knowing which ones they are as they no longer show in 'recent' files - you have to search through folders and hope you can work it out! No idea what has synced uploaded and downloaed as they aren't in recent! Can't work like this
A comfort to know someone else is struggling with this - files uploaded directly to dropbox.com do not show up as "recent files" on desktop - what a major feature loss!! huge impacts on work and usability

When I hover over the icon in my tray it says "Dropbox 74.4.115 Up to Date".
The menu no longer opens when I right click on the icon

There is some problem with version 75.4.115 on my Mac. It *is* syncing but the Recents lists on the app (and Recents on the website Home page!) are not updating. The Recents shown in both places are at least 24 hours old (not sure when 75.4.115 was released) and do not show the dozen or so files I've updated today.
I've tried restarting the app several times, rebooted the computer, AND reinstalled the app -- the problem persists. Note that it *is* syncing: if I touch, create, or modify a file in a selected updates folder, that file is uploaded and synced with other hosts (but does not show in Recents (local app OR online)).
I am on OS X 10.13.6, using Selective Sync in version 75.4.115.
