Hi anajand, sorry to hear you're having trouble with this!
In order for us to be able to identify if this is a browser specific issue, we would need to check if the same behavior is present on another browser. If you could give it a go, just to exclude that as a possibility, that'd be great.
You can also try to upload the file using an incognito tab on Chrome, and clearing your browser's cache would also help. Does that happen with this specific file only?
Keep me posted!

I am also having this problem—on all browsers. And I just paid for another year of pro at $199 a year. Oof.

Hi Jendawick, sorry to hear about that!
You mentioned this happens on all of your browsers. Does this happen with certain files/folders or some of them?
Can you clarify the size and file type of content you're uploading?
Keep me posted!

**bleep** this. 2GB file not finalising. My client is waiting for it. Now I have to re-upload the entire thing. Fix this **bleep**.- Megan12 months agoDropbox Staff
Hi NotHappy, I'd love to get to the bottom of this with you.
I understand that this isn't ideal, but I'd really like to see what might be causing this.
Were you uploading your file directly to your account, or using a File transfer possibly?
Also, did you notice this behavior on one specific browser, or did you try more?
Let me know, and we'll take it from there!
