Dropbox stopped syncing on Win11, but the app says there aren't any sync issues.
Hi,
About a week ago any file/folder I add on my PC (Windows 11) has stopped syncing, while the app says that I don't have any sync issues.

Hi Mark,
Thanks so much for trying to help but it's none of these issues. I can see one file which is a pdf that I've actually sent from my iPad to Dropbox, and it is not showing up in the local folder on my PC. It is, however, in my Dropbox folder online. But this same folder has been updated on my PC, and those updates are missing from the online Dropbox. I cannot see what the other file is, but the first file is the one that is being continuously synced, or is "next" for syncing. None of the applications are open, and of course I restarted my PC many times.
Oddly enough, another folder that I updated on my PC after the previous folder that is not updated from my PC to the online depository, has now synced in the meantime. But it took almost a day. Anyhow, I guess this means that the two stuck files didn't hold up further updates, or at least not permanently. Now I'm testing whether further changes on my PC that I'm making now are updating.
Also, the indexing of thousands of files has stopped now, and I'm back to the two files that the desktop app says Dropbox is downloading.
Thanks,
Silvia
