"View Sync Issues" full of issues that can't be fixed
Hello, in the "View Sync Issues" is have more than 900 issues reported.
I noticed that most of them were files starting win a dot from some sort of temporary file from my presentations in Keynote.app.
I remove most of those file via terminal app (i handled this with the command: "find /Users/my_user/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox -name ".*" -type f -print0| xargs -0 \rm -rf"). Not those files are gone but DropBox is still reporting me more than 600 issues. How can I solve this boring issue?
I am using Dropxbox Plus client v170.4.58.95 on macOS Monterey ver 12.6.4.
TIA

Hi Cesare G, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Could you try the steps in this thread to fix the permissions and hard links to see if this helps?
Keep me updated with any progress!
Thanks for your reply; I already tried both fix permissions and hard links but the issues are still there. Any way to force re-syncing the whole DropBox?

Are the sync issues referring to the same locations you previously deleted, or are they for files elsewhere on your account?
