Some folders do not give online-only option on Windows
Hi, I am on Windows and several folders do not give "make online-only" as an option when I right click on them in Windows Explorer. This is a problem particularly because it's not showing up folders I've synced my phone's photos to and they've taken up my whole hard-drive. I see other dropbox options when I right click, just not that one. Other folders do show this option when I right click on them. I have cleared the cache per a recommendation in a different thread and Dropbox is showing up to date, version 205.4.5765.

This is for my camera uploads folder, but happens for a few other folders
This is for a different one where the option does appear
