I right click on files within the dropbox folder - so a file that is contained in a folder in the main dropbox folder. I am attaching a screenshot.

Hey nadahashmi, thanks for the screenshot!

 

Could you please let us know if the desktop app is running and syncing normally in your menu bar?

 

Also, are you navigating your Dropbox folder on your computer or another location perhaps? It's not quite clear in your screenshot.

        Thanks for the screenshots nadahashmi - much appreciated!

         

        If this persists after rebooting your computer, could you try to share a link to a file of yours via the website and let me know how it goes?
