Dropbox not syncing (Windows 11)

[Jelle_dejong]

I set up a new computer for my wife.  Installed Windows 11 while I was at it and of course installed Dropbox as she has all her personal and work files on it.  Simply cannot work without Dropbox.  Dropbox appeared to install fine but ... once up and running it is simply not syncing.  The icon in the tray shows it is syncing and when I hover my mouse over it, it says is is syncing but to no avail.  No files show up in my Dropbox folder in File Explorer so for now we are using the old computer.

Does anybody have any suggestions?  I have done all the obvious:
1 - Turned off the firewall and virus protection
2 - Uninstalled and reinstalled
3 - Turned off the computer and turned it on again
4 - Left the computer alone for a while hoping it would figure it out
5 - Went through the whole advanced re-installing as shown on the Dropbox website (going as far as deleting folders in the regedit etc.)

And after all this ... still not syncing!  Don't know what to do anymore about this!

Anybody have any suggestions?

Hi @MichelleDolley, how are you today? 

It's not clear to me what the problem is on your end. Do you add content inside your Dropbox folder on your computer, but you can't see it on other devices?

Feel free to also share your syncing status with me. You can have a look at this Help Center article in the meantime.  

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there.
