How to sync folders from Dropbox online to my desktop app?

Hi, I am using dropbox plus trial now. I have all the folers saved to dropbox online now, then today I installed dropbox app to my windows 11 laptop. Since the files are so large, so I only select some folers to sync to my deskstop dropbox app, all other folders are saved to dropbox online.

Question, there is one folder, which is available online, how to sync the folder to dropbox app?

thanks!

    If you originally chose not to sync that folder during the installation of the app, you can go into your Selective Sync settings within Preferences and check the folder.
