WPS Office files won't save to Dropbox on PC

Using windows 10 pro on PC

I keep all important files on a dropbox folder on my PC

If using microsoft Excel I can save to this without a problem, but since using WPS spreadsheets it doesnt save to dropbox or anywhere else on the computor. PDF files appear to save okay

    As this is happening even when you try saving the files elsewhere on your computer, it would indicate that this isn't a Dropbox issue and is instead an issue with WPS. I'd suggested reaching out to their support team for assistance.
