#.url There was an error uploading a file
Hi, what is this error #.url about? I get it only in Firefox, in Chrome I don't see any error but I can't rename a very important folder that has many files.

That looks like you are trying to upload a shortcut to the folder and not the actual folder.
Hi Mark, I have read in the documentation that Dropbox accepts shortcut/URL link files, such as .lnk and .url. Can you confirm this is the case and where I can find information about non-permitted files?
The issue with this message is that it is not very informative. I don't have a #.url file, hence I can't pinpoint what is causing this issue. Thanks.

Dropbox would accept .lnk or URL files BUT that would be it - it would only upload that file and not the thing it was pointing to.
Have you searched file *.url files?
Where is it you are going to upload this file? How are you doing it?
