Text Editor no longer usable free in Files App

Suddenly have this major problem: I cannot work on text files in my iPad FILES app. Can't open, move, copy, whatever. I get the messages shown in the attached screenshots. I sure don't want to pay £5...

    Thanks Hannah, I think you're right. I get the same behaviour in all the FILES app locations. I also posted identical request in the Apple iPad forum:

    But posted here partly because I wasn't 100% sure I could rule out Dropbox but also hoping other Dropbox users who also have iPads could advise if they had same issue.
