Hi Psyber; welcome to our Community!

 

Can you please go through the exact steps you take that result in this error so I can investigate?

 

Also, do you get the same error if you copy or move the file in your Dropbox folder?

 

Could you perhaps try uploading it through our website directly and let me know how it goes too?

 

Thanks!
