Same problem here. Running Windows 11 - Ver: 23H2. Right clicking any Dropbox folder does not bring up any Dropbox associated context in the menu. You only see the typical Windows options. Clicking "Show More Options" doesn't show anything additional. The Dropbox app is running -version v203.4.4857.  I only noticed this today when trying to share a folder. Not sure how long it's been this way. Yes, I know I can do it from dropbox.com, but not nearly as convenient. I suppose Microsoft is trying to force people to use OneDrive (which leaves a lot to be desired). Help!

Thanks for all the details you’ve shared, Jimski27! Appreciate it. 

 

Did you notice this after any kind of update?

 

Have you tried reinstalling the Dropbox app? If not, give that a go and let me know if the options are still missing.
