When I click to create a transfer nothing on the page allowed to be click on. It's like the entire page is an image. I change browsers cleared cache nothing is helping.

There's a video in my Dropbox (not in a folder). I don't recognize it and I want to delete it. But that's not an option. Wondering what's going on.
It's also not syncing to my computer.
Thanks.
These are the only options.

Issue Summary:
- The "DELETE" button is currently disabled (greyed out) in Dropbox.
- Previously functional, the "Delete" button became inactive after initiating the upload of numerous large image files.
- Approximately 40 photographers utilized File Request Links to upload thousands of image files, coinciding with the greying out of the "Delete" button.
- Upload speeds to Dropbox are notably slow.
- The issue has been reported through Dropbox chat, but a resolution has not been provided.
- A possible explanation is that simultaneous uploads of large files via File Requests may temporarily disable certain actions, such as deleting files, to prevent conflicts or unintended deletions during the upload process.
Urgency and Impact:
- Urgent resolution is needed, as the inability to delete unwanted images hampers the culling process and subsequent timely delivery of files to clients, impacting contractual deadlines.

Hi there, has anyone had this similar problem before?
We have a company Dropbox account. When I click on "All files" I can see two folders - my folder and the folder that the rest of the company can access.
1. As of 2 days ago, I could delete files and folders in my own folder. Today, I cannot delete anything... I can only create folders, rename files, share, edit, etc.
2. I have not changed any settings or been in my folder since two days ago
3. It says I am the owner of the folder and only I can edit
4. Strangely enough, I can go into my shared company folder and I can delete files and folders there
Thanks for your help in advance!
