You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Can't view or download any file using ANY web browser
Wow always use the desktop client or android. But on web browser Firefox, Chrome or Edge, all in private mode I cannot preview OR download any of my files.
I've figured it out. I had to change my DNS away from 8.8.8.8 for some reason Google's DNS is not loading dropbox.com intermittently and blocking the preview or downloading of files.
8.8.4.4, 1.1.1.1 works, also on my ASUS router I changed it so that the DHCP assigns the DNS directly and not the IP address of the router itself as it was also causing the problem. Thanks.

Dropbox StaffHey there turtleh - sorry to hear that!
Could you please clear your browsers' cache and try again? If that doesn't work, you can also try an incognito window or another browser with no extensions/plugins running.
If you could check for any pending updates on your browsers as well that'd be awesome.
Keep me posted on your progress please!
Hi Walter, I have tried on all Firefox, Chrome and Edge private, incognito and I private modes on my main win10 desktop and also on one with a new installation that has never logged into Dropbox.com before
