Mods can go ahead and delete/lock this thread...i found a workaround for it...problem was i dont have (and dont plan to have) a PC so i couldnt just plug it in and transfer but i just used my xbox to upload from the external drive the videos where on, downloaded them on to my tablet from there, reformatted them, then uploaded to google from tablet and downloaded them on to the headset from there...took a bit of time but it works :D

Yes me too i have the same problem. It appeared after the last Oculus Quest Update V12.
So it is an Oculus Problem and there are People already posting in the Oculus comunity support section. I hope Oculus will see it and can fix it soon, because Dropbox is one of the few ways to easily transfer files..(in my case 3D stereoscopic Pictures and Videos) to this device and into the Oculus Gallery.

An easier temporary workaround is to download files from dropbox to your phone, then stream to your quest by dlna, theres several free apps available on android which work perfectly.
You can also login to dropbox on the oculus browser and download files directly to your device.
It's annoying that its necessary, but it's a reasonable interim solution.
