No option to save the updated version of file when using the Dropbox badge
Hi. Got a weird issue where the Dropbox badge shows all states (other person editing, we'll let you know when they've finished etc) EXCEPT offering to download the new version after the other user has finished editing. It just stops saying anybody else is editing and reverts to normal, and then if I save, I get a conflicted copy! Anybody else seen behaviour like this and have a solution?

Hi there PCBoB - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
Could you please let us know your device's OS version, and the version and status of the Dropbox desktop app as shown in your menu bar/system tray?
Have you tried rebooting your device and/or quitting and relaunching the app since you first noticed this?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
Thanks for picking this up. One PC is Windows 11, and one is Windows 10. Both Dropbox apps are 211.4.6008 (both Dropbox systems upgraded, uninstalled & reinstalled several times to try to fix this - always the same). Only other "clue" I can offer is that I sometimes also see briefly Dropbox attempting & failing sync with brief flash of sync issue as "can't sync file because open in Word", starting sync again, failing, etc etc......

I see, thanks for the additional information PCBoB
Could you have a look at your events page and the version history of the files to see what might be happening?
