I have set up Backup on a new desktop computer, for about 500 GB of data on my C drive. Despite checking off all the boxes for the backup of documents and pictures, I don’t see anything happening - how long should the backup take?

Hi @David81553, welcome to our Community! 

 

When you say you don't see anything happening, do you mean that your files aren't available in your Dropbox folder? If not, feel free to clarify and let me know more. 

 

Also, can you let me know the app's current syncing status, please? 

 

Let me know more!
