File Sync to new PC - for offline availability
Hi there - I have had my PC replaced and setup Dropbox on my new one. The files are visible but I would like to sync them for offline use. Can you please advise how to go about that as I am unable to find solution details. Thank you.

Hello, I have the same problem: after restoring my pc and reinstalling Dropbox many files are available only on-line. They appear with an X and the icon. Only if I open then once they will be storage locally.
I already have read this guide: "access-files-offline" and my configuration appears to by correct. Plus, in Selective sync all the folders are checked as to be stored localy.
But the problem still.
