Dropbox Showing Unplugged while my hard drive is still connected

Hi, my dropbox desktop app showing UNPLUGGED while its still connected. I'm using unlimited Auto backup plan but its not syncing anymore. I try to reinstall the dropbox app, connecting disconnecting the hard drive and also checked if window is updated but nothing work. When I click on the app, it shows that its upto date but I added new folders in the hard drive and its not backing it up.

    Hi Sam Toor, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Have you tried disconnecting the external drive and then reconnecting it to your device?

     

    This will help me to assist further!
