Hey skotov, keep in mind that we have temporarily paused updating new users to Dropbox for macOS on File Provider. However, your Dropbox desktop app for macOS will still work as normal.

Megan, really struggling with lack of proper sync. Is there a way to force the update for me? When you expect the pause will be lifted? 

 

Thanks
