I think I didn't click on the option for dropbox accessibility on the previous installation 🙂👍

Hi matthewp,
Just looking to narrow down on this issue for you.
Thanks for the heads up about the difference in the OS!
I don't think it's the deciding factor here, but the latest version of the OS is recommended.
In case any installer prompts were missed regards what it can do in Finder, you can get the full offline installer here:

You can also manually check in case something was missed and might need to be allowed on the OS side.
Let me know what you find!

Hi - Will re-installing remove any files I've already uploaded to dropbox?
- Calvin2DBX2 years agoDropbox Staff
Hi matthewp,
No, not at all, re-running the installer won't affect any files already on Dropbox or in your Dropbox folder.
Let me know what you find after with the options shown in the right click menu. Screenshots are always welcome!
