"Your account stopped syncing during an update" error on desktop app on Windows
I am on Windows 11, latest release and my Dropbox is also stuck on updating. The Dropbox version is the same. I am also receiving an error that I have not received before. I have stopped SnagIt, but in order to stop Windows Explorer, I would have to restart my PC.
Hello all,
I'm having a syncing issue after the recent update.
I'm getting error message that account stopped syncing due to some files are being used by other applications.
No files or applications were open during the update.
Also, I have restarted the machine a few times now, even with logged off from Dropbox as the notes suggested in case you have this error.
Obviously I can't rename or delete the folders as step 3 suggesting.
Any Ideas ?
Thank you.- Hannah
Dropbox Staff
Thanks PapaNinjago and jdc_smiley for bringing this to our attention.
PapaNinjago, if you haven't already, please make sure to restart your computer, to see if that helps.
As for you, jdc_smiley, do you have a Dropbox icon in your system tray?
If so, please hover over it and let me know what you see.
Our company has 24 people that have Window 11 and Dropbox and all are having "Your account stopped syncing during an update because some files are being used by other applications" The weird thing is, we can't access the dropbox folder that is on the laptops. Plus Explore is have problem also. And some employee are off site and still have the same problems. We have restarted the laptops and same thing.
