Thanks, it helped so my files are syncronizing again. However, I need to use a shortcut to access the dropbox folder - i can't use the app from start or the processlinje shortcut.

Dropbox StaffHey Joak0695, I'm here to help!
Do you get any specific errors, or is the app not reacting at all?
Have you tried uninstalling, and then re-installing it?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
Hi Megan,
The app does not react. I have tried opening it from theTaskbar, I have tried running it from start (also with administrator). However, I can access the files through a shortcut on the desktop, but not the app.
I have tried uninstalling/re-installing it multiple times. Also searched the web for answers.

Hey Joak0695 - sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that the next troubleshooting step here would be a clean, advanced reinstall.
Could you give it a go using the offline installer from this page directly and let us know how it goes?
If you're on the Basic plan, also be careful not to hit your account's device limit.
