I love Dropbox. I can't say I've messed around with a bunch of different cloud storage services, but Dropbox has been more or less great for me for years. However, recently the desktop application ha...
This sounds exactly like my issue. Things are slow because Dropbox is totally thrashing the registry. Right-clicking on the desktop (or opening the Start Menu) requires checking a few dozen registry entries, but Dropbox's indexing causes a kind of denial-of-service attack on the Windows registry.
Dropbox support was pretty cool when we started talking offline and we were able to track it down to Windows being the real troublemaker. When Dropbox checks a file during re-sync, it sends out a request to Windows to update the little icon in the corner (green checkmark, etc.).
Historically, this was fine. Maybe(?) after the latest Windows 10 update (that's my guess; the Dropbox team reported they haven't been able to reproduce the behavior), that exact same "hey, Windows, update that file's icon" request now involves checking the registry for four values, which ends up closer to thirty actual registry operations. Who knows why. Windows doesn't seem to cache the values, so it repeats the check for every file. And Dropbox seems to update the whole folder hierarchy's icons each time (despite alleged "deduplicating logic"), so you end up with something close to 150 registry calls per file in your Dropbox!
No known workaround.
All we'd need is an "I don't want icon overlays" option in Dropbox and this problem would disappear. Alternatively: Windows could fix its broken code.
My Dropbox issues have accelerated and become worse. A client sent me 8gig worth of files. Normally, sure, it would take a bit of time to synch, etc., but she sent these a WEEK AGO and even though I "moved" both of her files to "selective synch" (making them almost useless for me, by the way), my dropbox is STILL SYNCHING and the latest is, it's going to now take 24 hours--HOURS--to synch 107 (small) files.
This has gone from the sublime to the ridiculous. I've never had such horrible problems with this app. Another client sent me a 3.5 gig file today, and I can't download it to DB. It's absolutely impossible; I won't be synched for a MONTH at this rate.
Dropbox--my entire company has run on your app. Myself, all my employees, etc. and now, you're not just losing MY teeny-weeny 3TB account business, but my 25 employees' too. I pay for their individual dropboxes, each year, and I **bleep** sure won't now. This is ABSURD and I am so angry I could scream. To have a DB that hasn't synched in over a WEEK! When I removed the "big files" that were apparently clogging it up? (and, btw, I removed tens of thousands of files and did it do anything? NO!).
Unbelievable how you could screw up a product that worked GREAT. What on earth were you thinking?
Hey everyone, apologies for missing your replies and thank you for nudging me back.

I love Dropbox. I can't say I've messed around with a bunch of different cloud storage services, but Dropbox has been more or less great for me for years. However, recently the desktop application has been making certain aspects of my computer unusably slow. I say \"certain aspects\" because really it's not the whole thing. To be honest, the only thing I've notied is right clicking. It sounds silly, but this really does make your computer frustratingly slow when you're trying to work with files in Windows Explorer. I can navigate Windows Explorer with no lag, but when I right click anywhere (including my Desktop) there is a 10+ second delay to bring up the list of commands.
\n
This problem only occurs when the app is indexing files. When it is fully synced and not indexing, everything seems to return to normal. I've also had what I've seen to be a somewhat common problem where indexing hangs up. But the right click delay is still there even when it is successfully indexing as well.
\n
Is there a solution to this problem? I know there are options to limit bandwidth by the app, but I see nothing for controlling the indexing function. Thanks for your help.

This sounds exactly like my issue. Things are slow because Dropbox is totally thrashing the registry. Right-clicking on the desktop (or opening the Start Menu) requires checking a few dozen registry entries, but Dropbox's indexing causes a kind of denial-of-service attack on the Windows registry.
Dropbox support was pretty cool when we started talking offline and we were able to track it down to Windows being the real troublemaker. When Dropbox checks a file during re-sync, it sends out a request to Windows to update the little icon in the corner (green checkmark, etc.).
Historically, this was fine. Maybe(?) after the latest Windows 10 update (that's my guess; the Dropbox team reported they haven't been able to reproduce the behavior), that exact same \"hey, Windows, update that file's icon\" request now involves checking the registry for four values, which ends up closer to thirty actual registry operations. Who knows why. Windows doesn't seem to cache the values, so it repeats the check for every file. And Dropbox seems to update the whole folder hierarchy's icons each time (despite alleged \"deduplicating logic\"), so you end up with something close to 150 registry calls per file in your Dropbox!
No known workaround.
All we'd need is an \"I don't want icon overlays\" option in Dropbox and this problem would disappear. Alternatively: Windows could fix its broken code.

BTW:
My Dropbox issues have accelerated and become worse. A client sent me 8gig worth of files. Normally, sure, it would take a bit of time to synch, etc., but she sent these a WEEK AGO and even though I \"moved\" both of her files to \"selective synch\" (making them almost useless for me, by the way), my dropbox is STILL SYNCHING and the latest is, it's going to now take 24 hours--HOURS--to synch 107 (small) files.
This has gone from the sublime to the ridiculous. I've never had such horrible problems with this app. Another client sent me a 3.5 gig file today, and I can't download it to DB. It's absolutely impossible; I won't be synched for a MONTH at this rate.
Dropbox--my entire company has run on your app. Myself, all my employees, etc. and now, you're not just losing MY teeny-weeny 3TB account business, but my 25 employees' too. I pay for their individual dropboxes, each year, and I **bleep** sure won't now. This is ABSURD and I am so angry I could scream. To have a DB that hasn't synched in over a WEEK! When I removed the \"big files\" that were apparently clogging it up? (and, btw, I removed tens of thousands of files and did it do anything? NO!).
Unbelievable how you could screw up a product that worked GREAT. What on earth were you thinking?
