Cannot open excel files on my Mac, files aren't corrupt.

I cannot open all of my excel files in my Dropbox.  Everything was fine yesterday, and I still worked with all my files. But today it cannot. The files weren't corrupt, I tried to open in downloads folder and everything was fine.

I have already reinstall the app, but still cannot be opened.

Maybe someone can help me about this problem, thank you.

    Hi nabillaamalia, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    Are the Excel files marked as available offline in your Dropbox folder?

     

    This will help me to assist further!

        Do they open if they are outside of the Dropbox folder? 

         

        Have you tried a repair of Office 365?
