Decryption fails running iOS 14.2
Just updated iPhone and iPad to iOS 14.2. Now, trying to open an encrypted file, it tell me "Decryption Failed. Null" If I open with Excel, it works fine. Anyone else having this issue?

I did what others have suggested as a work around until DropBox fixes the problem.
My password protected files in DropBox are all Excel Files. They open just fine with the passwords on my desktop but not on my phone. I downloaded the Excel app on my phone. I gave it permission to link to DropBox files on my phone.
I can now open them in the Excel app (with the passwords) just as quickly and easily as accessing Dropbox. And the files can be emailed/copied/saved from Excel.
I hope your files can be opened with an app that you can do this same work around with.
