Random Dropbox placeholder file on desktop
I'm trying to understand why a file called "Dropbox" just appeared on my iMac desktop. It looks like a text file, but can't be opened. Clicking on it results in the following message: "Item Dropbox is used my MacOS and can't be opened."
When I "get info" on the file, it's 780 bytes.
I have been rearranging some dropbox files on this computer, and just installed Dropbox on another computer. Perhaps it's related to that. Don't know if it's relevant or not, but all my files are offline as well as online
It appears to be a placeholder but I've been using Dropbox for years, and haven't seen this before.
Any ideas are much appreciated.
Marty
