Hey MatteoG, welcome to our Community!
As a first, I’d like you to send me any ticket number you may after speaking with our support team. It can help understand what you’ve tried with them already.
Regarding the issue you mention; what’s the OS version of your computer, as well as the syncing status and app version of your Dropbox app?
How many files are currently syncing locally to your Dropbox folder? You can right click on your Dropbox folder, and select "Properties" to double check that.
Keep me posted.

For how long have you been having this issue?
