Files won’t open from Word after I deleted and reinstalled

lcaudill11

Running windows 11. Shortcut on taskbar to Dropbox wouldn’t work so I deleted Dropbox from my PC and reinstalled it. Now I can’t open files from the recently used files in MS office. The files are there in Dropbox but won’t open via the Dropbox link to the file. Help!!

I get c:\users\lorik\Dropbox\1 1 1 OA\CANCI is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted and try again.....

I read in another post that my quick access links may be broken

That sounds exactly like they are.

You will need to find where Dropbox is now and update the links.

Clicking on the Dropbox icon and then the folder icon will open it which should help you 🙂
