The Dropbox overlay icons are missing from our company-managed devices.
Hi,
I am managing a few computers with Microsoft Intune.
When I install Dropbox on managed computers, I always check that everything has synced and that it is on the latest stable Dropbox version...
Ok, so I think I solved the problem.
In Intune you can set Device Restirctions under "Devices -> Windows configuration -> Device restrictions".
In there i hade some App store restrictions, removed the few restrictions i had but kept "Install apps with elevated privileges".
Now the Overlay icons appear as they should! 🎉Screenshot:
Thank you for replying, I have followed the steps in both links but the overlayicons is still missing. :/
The only thing I noticed is that the "ks key" did not exist for me at this path:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dropbox\ks"
Do you have anything else I can try?
Btw I am on version 213.4.4597
Edit.
When I use the program Keepass and go to "open file" the file explorer shows correct overlayicons. Tried the same with Word and Excel, they do not show up there.

Dropbox StaffThanks for updating me, AndreasTheMachine! Can you clarify what’s the current syncing status you see on the Dropbox app?
Other than that, you can also give these steps a go.
Gave the new steps a go, but i am at the same place. Still no overlay icons.
Sync status is: Your files are up to date.- Megan
Hey AndreasTheMachine, thanks for trying anyways!
Can you send me a screenshot of what it looks like on your end, in order for me to have a visual too?Absolutly, but the attachment button dose not seem to work? And when i try to drag pictures into the "reply" it says "file is not allowed".
