    Hmm. :thinking: I’d kindly suggest moving this discussion to email, due to sensitive and account-specific info that may be required so as to further investigate. In this case, I can contact you to your email address associated with your Forum profile. Would that be alright with you? 
     
    Let me know and I’ll make sure to get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks for the answer.
So. I have a server where dropbox is installed. I shared this folder over the network, from another computer I go to the server using the RDP.
So, I connect to the server via RDP, put the file in the dropbox folder, without closing the RDP session, go from my computer to the website and check if there is a file - synchronization is in progress, the file is there. But when I exit the session on the RDP from the server, the files are not synchronized.
You sent me the article, it says that sharing the dropbox folder over the network
It can cause errors, but when I go to the server via RDP, the synchronization happens normally, despite the fact that the dropbox folder is open for full access via the network, this is where the session is, when it is open, everything is fine, when I leave the session, the synchronization stops working.
I already tried to start the service on behalf of the user under which I open the session, it does not help.
Help me please.
In general, dropbox can synchronize without logging in to the session ???

      Hey Romul, for privacy reasons, I’ve removed the email address you mention in your post. For additional security purposes, I’m only able to directly contact the email address that is associated with your Forum profile. 
       
      Having said that, I’ve sent you an email to the email address associated with your Forum profile, so as to further investigate. Please check your inbox for my latest message.
       
      If you’re not sure which email address is associated, click on the Dropbox logo that you see on the top left corner of your screen, navigate then to the avatar that’s on the top right hand-side of your screen, and go to Settings. On the first tab (General) that you’re presented with, you should see the relevant email address. 
       
      Cheers! :upside_down:
