My app isn't syncing the latest changes.

Hello,

It seems that the desktop application is not synchronizing files correctly to my computer. I have Excel files that are flagged as not up-to-date and showing an incorrect format, making them impossible to open. However, when I access the files via the web version of Dropbox, they appear fine, can be downloaded, and work without any issues.

My disk is not full. I have already tried disabling synchronization on my computer and re-enabling it. After the locally synchronized files were deleted, the application re-downloaded them, but the problem persists.

I have few screenshots if needed.

Could you please assist me with this issue?

Best regards,
Martin

    Hey CFGtechlet's jump right into this!

    The first thing I'd like to know is your device's OS, along with the Dropbox version and syncing status, please. 

    You can find the status of the app by locating your little Dropbox icon on your task bar, next to your WiFi and hover your mouse over it.

    If you have any screenshots, they're more than welcome.

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
