Dropbox v162.4.5419 Not Syncing Files in Full (December 2022)
I have been experiencing the following behaviour with the latest December 2022 update: Dropbox lets you free up precious hard drive space by sending files to online-only storage in the cloud. Even though they are cloud synced and stored, you’ll still be able to view every folder and file from your desktop. And when you want to access them, the files will sync automatically to your hard drive – but only when you need it.
The above behaviour is exactly the reason I despise other online file storage platforms.
How do you turn this feature off in the new December 2022 update?
