      Hey Sylow23 , I'm glad to see you got to the bottom of your issue. You certainly didn't disturb the community... your thread could really help someone else who might face a similar problem in the future 🤓.

       

      I'm Theresa, one of the Community Managers here at Dropbox 😺. I'm always curious and interested in learning how people use Dropbox in their daily lives. If you're open to sharing, I’d love to hear more about how you use Dropbox day to day, and which features you regularly rely on. Who knows? We might be able to offer some additional tips or ways to boost your productivity ✨.
