Dropbox symbol has a red square box

Hi there

The Dropbox symbol shows a red square and I cant find a description.

What does that mean? Dropbox says "alles auf dem neuesten Stand"  (ie. all actualized)

Thanks, André

        Could you try temporarily disconnecting the second monitor, if possible, and see if the icon changes to a number or another image?

    Hi Andre15, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    If you open the Dropbox desktop application by clicking the icon, do you see any yellow messages on the various sections?

     

    Do you have multiple monitors on your machine?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

      Hi Jay

      Thanks for your reply. No, I dont see any yellow messages. I just have a separate monitor attached to my laptop computer.

      Regards, André
