    Hi Nadia88, welcome to our Community!

     

    It sounds like you're actually referring to our online-only feature, not the make available offline which is the opposite of what you wish to achieve. See more here too. 

     

    -Online-only: An online-only file is stored in the cloud and won’t take up storage space on your computer or mobile device.


    -Available offline: If a file is available offline, you can open it from the Dropbox folder on your computer or from your mobile device without needing access to the internet. These files take up storage space on your device.

     

    Would you mind clarifying the OS you're using, along with the subscription you're currently on? 

     

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