When using Adobe Lightroom Classic with Dropbox, you might encounter issues where certain database files, such as previews.db and root-pixels.db, fail to sync. It can happen because Lightroom keeps these files open and locked during operation, preventing Dropbox from accessing/syncing them.

- After finishing your Lightroom session and properly closing the application, resume Dropbox syncing.
