I wish to change some settings. When I click on either the dropbox icon (either right click or left click, I expect to see some dialog box where I can changes settings. Instead I see Windows explorer showing the cache directory of the applications. How can I get to the dropbox settings dialog box if I cannot access it this way.36Views0likes10CommentsSearching Dropbox files on my Windows results in "File not found" error, when I open it.
I just installed dropbox locally on Windows and when I try searching for a file, the file comes up quickly in the search, but if I try just double clicking to open the file it give me error "File not found it may have been moved, edited or deleted." But if I just right click on the search and found file, and then select "Open file location", the exact folder opens, I can now double click on the file and open it without a problem. Any help on resolving this would be appreciated. Thanks!21Views0likes3CommentsQuick View: smaller thumbnails option would be helpful
Hi, folder "Quick view" would be more helpful to me if it could show more thumbnails in its panel. Right now the thumbnails are huge and can only show four. Would be great to have smaller thumbnails so I can see 4x that amount in the right panel. Thanks.13Views0likes1CommentI seem to have duplicate Dropbox folders in Explorer
I have duplicate dropbox folders with only one installation showing in control panel. Both pointing to my USERS folder but one above THIS PC and one beneath the USERS folder. What can I do to get rid of the duplicate? AND THIS ONE BENEATH THE USERS FOLDER (sorry for the ALL CAPS)133Views0likes1CommentUnable to start Dropbox after installing Mcafee

Please try again later."
Running into the error listed in the topic title. This is a fresh Dropbox Lite install. I've approved the login via email. The app was able to create a folder, but it refuses to upload any files. My storage is not full. I've tried multiple connectivity types (Wifi and cellular). I've restarted the app. No unusual characters are used in the filename. I've tested with a brand new .txt file as well on a different drive; same issue. Doesn't appear to be any status disruptions. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!150Views0likes13CommentsDropbox not syncing even after reinstalling
So here's a doozy. I've recently reinstalled my windows. My Dropbox folder was on a secondary drive, so didn't get formatted. I have reinstalled Dropbox, and pointed it to the old dropbox folder. It spent a few days indexing, and decided then that it needed to upload and download a bunch of files. This is all fine, but it's not actually _doing_ that. It just knows that the files have to be done, adding new files will up the counter, but it's not doing anything. I can sometimes click on the icon in the bottom right corner and it'll suddenly go to 75 kbps, jumping down to 20 and then back to nothing (just no speed indicator at all) I've reset ownership, i've reinstalled the application. I'm at a loss. I've been googling for a few days now, trying loads of suggestions from this forum but i cannot figure it out. Who can help me? Dropbox was working fine before i reinstalled.Solved765Views0likes6Comments
