The "Make offline only" feature is no longer visible in the Dropbox context menu when I right-click a file in the browser. Instead, the option "Manage hard drive space" is available. Is this new option a replacement for "Make offline only"?

 

The "Manage hard drive space" tool is stuck "loading my files" on my hard drive when I try to use it. This is probably due to the substantial number of files I have stored on Dropbox, somewhere around 300k.

 

My OS is Mac Ventura 13.0.

Hey @mmmccccttttt, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community.

 

Can you please clarify if you're referring to the "make available offline" or the "make online-only" option? Or are they both gone?

 

Can you send us a screenshot of the option that you do see?

 

And lastly, please let us know the sync status and version of the Dropbox app on your computer.

 

You can see that by hovering over the Dropbox icon in your menu bar.

 

Thanks in advance!
