Request: All files available offline by default
Moving the Mac to the new File Provider is great - very happy this is finally happening and support on the new M1 is much better. Kudos!

Hi everyone, and thanks for your patience.
We're re-launching the option to choose the default status of synced files in the Dropbox desktop application (in the Preferences > Sync tab) for users of the newer File Provider version.
It should be available to you shortly. If you haven't received it yet, make sure to update your desktop app, and let us know if you have any questions!

Dave - (so sorry for the piling on...) - Any idea why I get "Access Denied" trying to go to the link to the forum post you referenced? Tried several times, and am logged in (obviously.) Would love to read it.

Same as Tim and the other user, the issue is not about "seeing" offline files, but if you want to have files available offline you have to download it one by one. This is absolutely not useful.
I also get the "access denied" message. No way of checking Dropbox issues with MacOS.
