Error when opening Dropbox shared links
I'm suddenly having issues following links to shared dropbox files, even ones that I created myself. My team uses basecamp for project management and we store links to shared documents there. I have signed out of both dropbox and basecamp and re-tried the links. I'll see the document for a second and then I get the following error.
I have logged out of both programs, rebooted and logged back in. No one else on my team is having issues.

Chrome is my default browser. I just pasted the dropbox link into Edge and received the same error.

Also - I cleared my browser cache as well. I do utilize a VPN but that isn't something new.

Yes, It happens in Edge as well. I cleared my Chrome cache and the problem persisted.

Would you mind turning your VPN off, to see if that makes any difference?
Just so we cover that as well.
