Hello, sydnewell...
I'm glad that you found out why the "New Folder" option wasn't originally in-view on your device.
It's always best to maximize your browser window so that you can view a website's complete contents.
Thank you for posting what solved your particular problem :white_check_mark:

This didn't work for me. I have one dropbox account where it is fine and another where it isn't.
Help!

Hi craiglandarchLA, the website has changed since that image, now there should be an ellipsis on the right when you click the folder, like so:
From there, you can download the folder to your machine. Hope this helps!

Hey Jay,
Thanks for responding. Yes I see that dropdown menu, however; there still isn't a 'create new folder' option. Can we only upload folders? If so that would seem very very strange.
Thank you for your help.
