How do I get the dropbox icon back on the toolbar of the finder windows?

I have a new MAC on Venture OS

I have Dropbox on the system toolbar and I can see my dropbox folders, but when I want to copy a link for file, there used to be an icon on the finder window toolbar and there was a dropdown from there.  Now I can't see that icon and dropdown.  I can right click a file and see the dropbox items on that dropdown, but I liked the old way.

    Hi chickefitz, welcome to our Community! 

     

    As a first step, have you made sure that your app is app and running as it should? 

     

    If I were you, I'd also restart my device, if you haven't already. 

     

    Can you locate your little Dropbox icon on your menu bar, next to your WiFi and hover your mouse over it? What is the version you're using, along with the app's syncing status

     

    Keep me posted!

        Could you check to see in the Finder settings if there is an option to show the Dropbox button there?

         

        Is Dropbox enabled for full disk access on your Mac OS settings?
