I can confirm this issue is also happening in Windows 10. I wiped my drive and installed a fresh copy of Windows 10, and then Dropbox, and it's stuck on the Selective Sync "Loading more folders". Also, nothing is syncing from my Dropbox.
I have another Dropbox account with only a few folders and tried to link that account instead on the same computer - that does work, almost instantly. It's a free account. The other account (which isn't working with Selective Sync and sync) is a paid Pro account. Go figure.
The same issue is happening to me on MacOS Sierra (Selective Sync stuck at "Loading more folders").
