How can I make my Backup files available offline?
I am running Dropbox Backup on Sonoma 14.5 and in the past few days, suddenly none of my files are available offline.
ALL of my files have a green checkmark icon next to them.
SOME of my files ha...

Here is the pathway to one of the files that has both a green icon and a cloud with an arrow.
If I shut my wifi off, I cannot open it. The cloud with an arrow turns into a pie chart.
The file opens automatically once I reconnect to wifi.
I will also note that there has been a change in behavior since this morning. Now files that ONLY have a green icon are in fact available offline. Earlier today those files weren't opening offline either. Now it seems the issue is only occurring with files that have both a green icon and a cloud with an arrow (which includes thousands of files).
