New computer not making files local
I have a Dropbox that I've maintained for nearly 14 years over various devices, and on my latest computer I've found that the files aren't syncing to offline mode automatically. I changed the setting that allows new files to be saved offline and not just to the cloud, but I can't seem to figure out to how to make sure that it downloads everything (almost 2GB) back to my new system.
I can wait for it for sync everything (though 90% is already on the computer, just in an older folder that the new installation of Dropbox refuses to use), but I can't figure out an easy option to do so.
Oh, that seems to be working.

Good to know, please update me if you need any further help!
I upgraded recently to Windows 11, and I can no longer find any option to make a file or folder available offline. I've been using Dropbox for over a decade. I NEED to get access to these files. What is going on?

Copperheadproduction, besides the offline/online-only options, do you see any other Dropbox options when right clicking on your files?
If not, I’d like you to check your system tray and let me know if a small Dropbox icon appears there and what its syncing status and app version are.
I've been a paid subscriber and power user for over a decade, and I can no longer figure out how to make files available offline after I updated to Windows 11. Right clicking on file or folder shows nothing. I can download from the Dropbox app, but that just puts it into downloads, not keeping it in the dropbox folder, but downloaded. I need help fast!
Any update? Thank you so much for the information. In my case, I using the free version of Dropbox and I want to upgrade it to premium and for that, I need some money. I have a great option from where I can earn some easy money, but the biggest concern is to find a good online casino. I found the best for me with the help of casinosanalyzers, you will find out https://casinosanalyzer.com/casino-bonuses/olympia.casino here and I also won Olympia casino no deposit bonus codes after signup. They are a website that makes it easy for every gambler out there, whether you are a professional or new, everyone wants to play at the best casino, and casinosanalyzers are going to fulfill your needs.
Also struggling with a new device. Saved large volume of files to dropbox to migrate from old laptop to new. Selected make available online for the whole containging folder and it seemed to be downloading files for about a day but now it has stalled. There doesnt see to be a logic regarding which files are on or offline. Have tried moving files out of folders but it hasn't inspired it to start downloading. Any help? I need to return old laptop asap but I am afraid to wipe it and lose something
