I can't delete a system folder on the Dropbox app (Windows 11).

I unfortunately copy a system folder in my Dropbox. I deleted it a few moment after and it is now deleted in the Dropbox cloud but not in my computer. So I can't delete it any more in my computer and I frequently receive error messages "Synchro impossible". How to do to definitly delete all the folder in my computer?

Hi @AlainT, thanks for your post here.

What kind of system folder did you upload to Dropbox? Can you send me a screenshot of it? 

Do you get any errors when trying to delete it from your device? If yes, I’d like a visual of that, as well. 

Finally, what if you drag it out of the local Dropbox folder? 

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks for all.

Thanks for clarifying, @AlainT! Can you also send over a screenshot of the error you’re getting to have a visual? Here’s how you can upload it here: 

Other than that, I’d like to know the OS version of your computer, as well as the syncing status and app version of your Dropbox app.
