Thanks for clarifying that for me OldMacGuy - much appreciated.

We currently have a private beta, which will be more widely available in October. If you’re interested in joining, you can turn on early releases.
I hope this helps!
Hi Hikejo,
I'm just wondering how you got Sync Folders Pro to work?
All I want to do is copy stuff out of dropbox onto my desktop, but I end up going around in circles trying to give Sync Folders Pro Full Disk Access.
I’m not sure I know!!! But, after several days of what seemed like inordinately lengthy sync times it’s back to its normal self with near instantaneous syncs. I do this, syncing Dropbox to an external hard drive because, heaven forbid, there should ever be a problem with internet access, my work is preserved. I date back to pre-personal computer days, so I take nothing for granted. 🤓
