I'm still having problems with the dropdown menu, not showing me 'Recently Changed Files'. The second dropdown flashes on the screen then immediately disappears

You might want to try a video driver update perhaps that will fix it, since the problems do sound display related
hope that helps

Not so sure, got a desktop and two laptops (all running Ubuntu 19.04) - they all have the same issue - also no other menu dropdown has done or does this? So maybe something in Gnome not getting called correctly, very strange response though as if I click multiple times, randomly it will show and stay and be fully functional, then if I close the dropdown I get the same thing happening again...

ah ok I thought you might be on a windows machine, but with that said I find many times in tech support some applications expect certain dependancies for the OS or drivers to have and if the OS doesnt have those dependancies, they malfunction. I would still check for OS updates first, then video driver and last but not least mouse driver. If that doesnt work, then id suggest contacting DropBox support, maybe they have a fixed version you could download, also I wonder if there is a dropbox download in the ubuntu store, maybe you might get some luck there.
good luck

Cheers - I'll dig around, had the issue for nearly a year now. Hopefully the latest 19.10 fixes it
