Several documents were showing up in the Windows File Explorer, but had a gray x icon on it. I right clicked on all of them and selected Smart Sync->Local.

Hi! I recently had to "refresh" my desktop, which uninstalled all of my apps. After I reinstalled Dropbox desktop (Windows 10) the computer acts funny.
I can see Dropbox in my systems tray showing a constant syncing of 11K+ files. When I right click to open the systems tray, the window opens up....all white...not responding. After about 3-4 minutes, the unresponsive window closes. Opening Dropbox causes my computer to act funny---I can't even reliably open task manager to kill apps.
