Files aren't fully syncing between Windows and Kbuntu
I am using Dropbox to share working files between a couple of computers, on Windows 11 and the other on Kbuntu Linux. Everything worked fine for a while but now, the files I save from the Linux box ...
It does sound like the Linux machine was signed into the wrong Dropbox account.
Logging into a Dropbox account on the browser on Windows won't affect your desktop connection, since they are completely separate.
One more note. Checking the icon on the task bars, I confirmed that Windows and Linux are now logged into the same account - 2T under [email removed as per Community Guidelines]

Can I reopen this thread, or do I need to start a new one. <y problem is back again. I created a new Dropbox folder and pasted an image into from Windows file explorer. From the Windows box I can move the file into and out of the folder. From Linux, iOS, and from a browser in Windows I don't see the folder and I don't see the file if I move it elsewhere like Public. Other than the new folder and files I see all the same stuff that I see in Windows explorer. I don't have another account with 2T of space so I can't just be logged into different accounts.

You can keep this thread open. Are you certain that the files have synced to the site? Is the Dropbox desktop application running and syncing on Windows?
I rebooted the PC and now they show up everywhere. I don't know what to make of that. I could upload to Dropbox. Move files around. But none of that info propagated until I rebooted? Bizarre. I'm going to read a book. Analog. 🙂
