Brown icon in left bottom corner of my files
Hello,
On several files, I have a brown icons in left bottom corner of my files.(see below)
in fact, in the same folder, there are green logos on fils but sometime there are brown logo
...
The brown logo isnt a Dropbox one. My guess is you've enabled the Briefcase function in Windows: https://www.techmesto.com/how-to-enable-briefcase-feature-in-windows-10
This is not supported in Dropbox and Dropbox can only sync/use/work with files that are in its own directory. So to use them you need to move the files directly in to Dropbox rather than just linked.

Thank your for your reply but I don't understand one thing.
Indee ; you have written : "So to use them you need to move the files directly in to Dropbox rather than just linked. "
Files in dropboxs come from a supplier ans files were in the dropbox cloud
I have synchronisae them to have files on my computers few day ago
Then , Yesteraday or the day before yesterday, I have did a copy past on some files and it seem that this logo appears for this action.
So I don't understand when you say "So to use them you need to move the files directly in to Dropbox rather than just linked. beacause for me they are already
Thank you for your help
