No context menu

I have a relatively freshly installed Monterey system and noticed that Dropbox isn’t nor has it ever displayed its context menu items in the Finder when I right-click on some item in my Dropbox folder.

The simple fix here was to move the Dropbox folder to where the symlink points to, that is, the full path.

Hi @mauricev

Is Dropbox running?

Maybe a reinstall would help: www.dropbox.com/downloading.

I can confirm that Dropbox is working inside a fresh account, so something in my Library folder is interfering with it. I see these errors in the Dropbox debug log

[1222/141720.290081:ERROR:cache_util.cc(140)] Unable to move cache folder GPUCache to old_GPUCache_000

It turns out this is a bug. My profile is symlinked to another volume on the same disk. In that situation, the context menu won’t show up. If I test with the profile on the boot volume, it shows up just fine.
