Thank you for replying.
I already restarted my computer several times.
I deleted the Dropbox app from my computer and I reinstalled it. I also deleted the Dropbox-folders from my finder, to start over. But, nothing happens: My Dropbox is still wants to sync 46,000 files. Which is insane.

I made a Word file on my Mac Studio:
I also have an old MacBook on which everything seems to work fine, but let me show you what is happening there:

Hi @fransvandervleuten, from the screenshots provided, it looks like there aren't any sync icons visible in both your Finder screenshots.
Are you certain the Dropbox desktop application is running and fully synced on both devices? Have you marked files as available offline or online-only?
