Folder online but not in explorer
Hi,
All of my folders have synced to my PC except one. I am able to see in online and access it but it is not available via the app or on explorer despite being shared with me.
Thanks,
...

Hi Jamires,
Have you tried this?
- Click on the Dropbox icon in the bottom right corner on the windows toolbar.
- Click on your initials/profile pic
- Click "preferences"
- Click "Sync"
- Click "selective sync"
Make sure all your files are ticked and click update and the should be then synced to your file explore in windows and not just online.
Hope this helps

I recently got a new computer with work and installed DropBox to access all of my previous files. I noticed that all of my loose documents and folders are appearing in my new computers file explorer, but I am missing most of my documents from within those folders. When I log into DropBox online I see that all of my documents are within my folders, yet these do not appear on my new computers file explorer. For example, I have a folder which should contain 35 word documents, but in file explorer, it is only showing 4. Anyone know the answer to this?!

Can you let me know your syncing status, and version of the app?
Also, have you checked on your end, to make sure that the files you're missing don't have any invalid characters?

I have to log in to like your comment, my folder's name is nothing wrong but after renaming then it can be synced again, quite weird.
PS: The folder is uploaded via Browser and appears on web only, can not see anything on the desktop app.
