Dropbox links lead to white screen & I can't preview them.

I cannot access any files through a dropbox link as every link I click leads to a white screen on the page. Reloading or closing the browser doesn't work, neither does opening on another browser or device.

    Hi Everybody,

     

    Thanks for confirming that this has been resolved. If anyone is still experiencing white screens when following links, let me know here and we'll take a deeper look into it.

     

    Regards,

    Ben

    Hi there, Arveilles, let's jump right into this! 

     

    Have you tried an incognito tab on your browser, or even clearing the cache on one of the browsers? 

     

    If you don't mind, please feel free to send me a screenshot of the page that you see on your end, in order for me to have a visual. 

     

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

      This seems like a dropbox wide issue. All of us are having issues with the view/share links. All white screens.

      I've got exactly this same problem, started within the last hour or so  - all shared links lead to a blank white screen.

        Screenshot attached but there's nothing to show you - it's literally a blank white screen! Currently causing chaos for my clients...

      Opening incognito tabs and clearing the cache does not work. The visual is just an all-white screen.
