Dropbox keeps complaining about "Can't Sync 'System Volume Information'"
Dropbox Windows client 3.0.5, running on Windows 8.1
I have a dedicated partition / drive for Dropbox, and Windows created "System Volume Information" folder on its root directory.
Dropbox clie...
I sent a reply but it seems to have evaporated. Yes, changing permissions seems to have cracked it. I accept deleting the folder wouldn't help. And it seem to me you can't create a folder with the same name because the OS would just say that it already exists, yes?.
The takeown command was a new one to me; it may have been valuable but I can't tell. Certainly changing permissions was the important thing, and also de-selecting it once it was visible finally clinched it.
So thanks, guys, good work; I am grateful.
I have the same problem - "Ca't sync System Volume Information ... ". and tried to follow the guidance above. But in Windows 10 I don't have the option to view system files - just hidden folders and drives. There is no sign anywhere of a System Volume Information. I'm wondering if Win10 does not allow you to see system files at all, regardless of what you ask to do - and yes, I am administrator. There is no such file/folder in the Dropbox account so I can't tackle it from that end. Any ideas?
