    Great, thanks for the update TomGose - so are you having the issue you described only on Chrome? Does it persist on an incognito window and after clearing your browser's cache? 

    Also, have you made sure you're running the latest version of Chrome?

Alrighty, I see it now and it says "up to date".

    Walter,

     

    Many thanks. Using the incognito browser, I was able to access the files as usual. I also cleared the cache and was able to open dropbox normally without the use of incognito.

    I had just updated the laptop to the latest version a few days ago.

     

    I appreciate your help. Have a great weekend!

      No worries TomGose - glad I could help!

      Should you ever need anything else, just let us know.

      Thanks for using Dropbox and have an amazing weekend ahead too :wink:

      Cheers!
