dropbox Icon missing from Menu Bar on macOS Ventura.
Before installing Ventura dropbox icon was visible in Menu Bar.
I stopped the dropbox application and restarted it and there was no change.
I uninstalled the dropbox desktop app and reinstalled it and it still does not appear.
The files are syncing when I add new files to the dropbox.
Please Help.
Hey @Kunal, thanks for joining us on the Dropbox Community.
Since the app seems to be working correctly, apart from the Dropbox icon missing, can you try the steps here, to make sure the Dropbox icon is selected to appear in your menu bar?
Let me know how that goes and we'll go from there.

There is no option in the Desktop & Dock Tab in the setting to show the Drop Box.
Sorry for the late reply, had gone sailing.
No worries, Kunal!
So, Dropbox doesn't appear as an option at all? Hmm, that's strange.
Can you try a more advanced reinstall of the app, to see if that helps?

I have the same problem. Cannot find Dropbox icon in menu bar no matter what I try and have no way to access Dropbox settings. Have reinstalled - still nothing. Running 13.1 on a 16" 2021 MacBook Pro.

Hi @Kunal and @EMS3; is it OK if we open two tickets for each one of you and investigate this further?
