Dropbox StaffHey bibotheghost, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Do you see the same behavior, if you open the file using a different browser or an incognito/private browsing window?
And what if you view the Dropbox version history for the file, do the changes show up there?
Keep me posted!
i have tried and it is the same behavior , the button still not visible

Hi bibotheghost, how are you today?
Does this happen with all of your Excel files, or just a particular one?
If "Show Changes" is greyed out in the Excel menu bar, then it's possible that the document has been locked from having changes made. However, since this looks like a Microsoft question or issue, the best thing would be to also check in with them.
I did some research on my end, and this is what I could find about it.when i tried the same file on onedrive the show changes tab is visible and working
is it a dropbox issue or a feature that is not prepared yet on dropboxplease advise me what i can do
tanks in davance for your support- WalterHey bibotheghost, sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that it looks like this is an issue with the Excel online and not Dropbox specific.
It could be that it's been replaced by co-authoring which doesn't provide the ability to track changes as outlined here.
I hope this helps a tad!
