Dropbox StaffHey BenAltizer!
Can you please click on the small Dropbox icon in your menu bar, and send me a screenshot of the window that will appear?

Hello,
I am finding the same problem.
I have a MacOS CatalinaCalina 10.15.7, and when I right-click on the Dropropbox folder in Finder, there are several other options available, but not the `make online-only`option.

No options for online only
No option for online only or smart sync, but the extension is enabled, dropbox is on the latest version, and I get other dropbox options when right clicking the files. The files are showing up with the green checks indicating that they are synced and changes made to the files do sync across devices, but there is no way to mark files are online only.
