Unable to access my files on DropBox! Have had a DB account shared between a work laptop + my personal laptop (both Win 11 + fairly new) for quite some time. Recently retired-Work laptop went away.

When I go to click on pictures or documents, I get the following: Hmmm… can't reach this page It looks like the webpage at file:///C:/Users/pgand/Downloads/Dropbox/Documents/MetLifeCritIllPol.pdf might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. ERR_FAILED I really hope I haven't lost everything I ever copied here. I attached a SNIP from File Explorer-they all LOOK PERFECT yet I can't ACCESS ANYTHING. Please help if you can thanks ! If so, kind of deceptive of DropBox as all the copies went well ! Please help if you can thanks !

Unable to see the cloud icons on my folders after the app's latest update.
Operating System Windows 11 Dropbox App Version/Browser Version 232.4.5988 Question or Issue I put all my files on online only and usually I'm able to see the cloud icon on top of the files/folders here but I can't view them anymore after the latest update, is this a feature or bug?I can't see my "syncing issues" or new updates when I check my Dropbox folder.
Device (Dell precision 3551) Operating System (Windows 11,) Dropbox App Version (232.4.5988) My dropbox says it has sync issues but when I select show me the issues it just shows me a blank window. Not sure if that is related, I think I have always had that but wanted to add just in case. I have been finding recently that my dropbox files and folders haven't been up to date, new files haven't been showing on my desktop file explorer although I have everything set to sync online only. If I go to dropbox.com, it also wont give me the option to view these files in file explorer like other folders (see images). Has anyone else experienced this or knows what it might be?
InDesign files are set to be opened with the Dropbox app and not InDesign - how can I change this?
Hi. In the past days, Dropbox is hijacking the file extensions. I try to open a file and it try to open with Dropbox instead of the correct app. I tried to "Open with" and "Change all", but after a few seconds, it changes back to Dropbox again. It's ver annoying because I have LOCAL files that should be opening in Indesign but they are not. Right click shows InDesign as Default App, BUT the first option in the dialog is Dropbox, so on double click, it doesn't do anything. I need to Right-click and open the files with Indesign everytime. Is there a way to solve this? Thanks, Luiz Dropbox Plan: Business Are you a Team Member or Admin? Admin Do you have access to the email linked to the account? (Yes) Are there any devices connected to your Dropbox account? MacOs
