My "share dropbox link" option in the drop down box is gone, how do I get it back?
I'm trying to send a link to someone and I have the file saved to my dropbox but I don't have the option to share the dropbox link. This just started as I shared a link a few weeks ago.

Hey folks,
This might be because we're interfering with other Finder extensions (Creative cloud etc) you may have running on your computer.
While we're working on fixing the bug with Apple, you *could* disable the other Finder extensions in System Preferences > Extensions > Finder:

Thanks Cyril, that worked for me!
For anyone (like me) who isn't sure how to quit the Dropbox app, it is in the "system tray" (the line of icons where the clock, wifi icon, volume control, etc are), rather than the dock. Right click on the Dropbox icon, and then click on the gear icon in the bottom right corner of the window that drops down. Quit should be an option in the dropdown menu. You can then relaunch Dropbox from the icon in your Applications folder. After doing this, the share option reappeared in the r-click menu from Dropbox files for me.
