Cannot select multiple files on the website while using keyboard shortcuts.
When I'm logged into my own Dropbox account through the website, I am not able to select multiple photos while holding in shift. I am very familiar with the shortcut keys and use them all the time....

I am using chrome and I have tried on safari as well with no luck. I cleared my history and cache as well. I also re-downloaded chrome with also no solution.

Hey @snook55, let me also jump in here!
I also tested this both in grid, and list view and was able to select multiple files at once.
If you try an incognito mode, do you notice the same behavior? If I were you, I'd also try to clear the cache on my current browser.
- photos56784 months agoExplorer | Level 4I just recently cleared the cache on both browsers. Incognito mode doesn’t appear to be working either.

Hey @snook55, do you have a different device that you could try this with?
I'm asking for that, because I'd like to identify if this is device-specific or if it might be a network issue too.
If you don't have one, don't worry I can send you an email in order for us to have a closer look there.

We have tried on other devices and the issue does not happen there. It is specific to one device and we can't figure out why since we have tried multiple browsers. Thank you for your help.
