    Glad to hear the behavior doesn’t persist, at least for now. If this resurfaces though in the future, feel free to let us know here and we can continue looking into this.

I already posted that Dropbox was synced, and the Dropbox version.

In case you haven't read the whole thread and until Dropbox actually fixes this bug, the only way I've found to make it normal again is to restart the computer. Such a hassle but (fingers crossed) it's fixed it for me – sometimes for weeks, sometimes for only days but it's still better than not being able to move or rename a file - such a hassle to workflow.
