Hi Everybody,

Hi
Was working fine until Monday, 1/2/2023. I tried to set a large folder to be offline available. Was taking way too long, so I instead removed it via selective sync. Folder is gone from my local machine, but Dropbox shows "syncing" and fileproviderd is at 100%. Is this going to work itself out or do I need to intervene ?
Killed Dropbox. Killed iCloud drive. Killed Google Drive. Restarted.
Now I have DropboxFileProvider varying between 2% and 120% AND fileproviderd at 104%.
