In my Windows system tray (next to the clock), Dropbox used to show that it was fully synced by showing a green check-mark over the Dropbox icon. This was really helpfull.  If Dropbox was offline, ...

Edit: Thanks for doing your icon Lestersk I didn't notice you had done it when I made this post, ty so much!

 

Here is the icon I made.

 

1. Copy dropbox.exe file from its location on your PC to your desktop.

2. Open the file in ResourceHacker

3. Find the "Icon Group" section, then find the 201 folder

4. Right click the 201 folder and go to "replace icon"

5. Find the icon file you downloaded below and replace the icon

6. Save-as the new exe but name it something like Dropbox with greencheck.exe

7. Copy and paste this file in your dropbox folder along side your regular dropbox.exe

8. Rename dropbox.exe to something like dropbox-backup.exe

9 Rename the new dropbox file to what you need it to be, dropbox.exe

 

 

Note: new updates to dropbox you will probably have to do this again so save the icon file to dropbox also
