Dropbox on pc stopped syncing
My Dropbox on pc has stopped syncing over 24 hours ago.
However when I use it on my phone then website any changes show there, but not in the pc app. The Dropbox icon isn’t in the tray any more, and I have over 1000 images on my pc in Dropbox that haven’t been uploaded, I really don’t want to uninstall Dropbox and risk losing all the files.
I definitely have enough storage

Hi AnimalNikki89, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
If the Dropbox icon isn't in the system tray, then it means that either it's hidden behind the arrow, or it's not running at all.
Could you try running the app to see if this helps to sync the files?
Keep me updated with any progress!
- AnimalNikki89Explorer | Level 3There’s no arrow for it to hide behind. I have opened and closed the app several times today and it is not syncing anything.
