I'm having the same problem, and I'm not techy enough to understand the solution you've written here. Can you (or someone) please lead me through the steps of fixing this problem so my Dropbox files don't all show up as zero bytes, as they currently do?

Hey StevMo1, let's jump right into this!
Feel free to share some additional details with me such as the OS you're currently using on your device, and the app's current version that you have installed there.
Other than "fixing the permissions" have you tried anything else on your end?
When did you first notice this?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

All good now, thank you!
