Set a whole folder to "offline"

nickrub

Hi, I downloaded on my Surface the Windows 10 App (from Microsoft store) instead of the usual program.

And I'm happy with this solution.

Now, I need to have offline a whole folder, to ease the access to numerous files.

I cannot set a folder on "offline"... just any single file. Why?

Thanks

Marking an entire folder as available offline is a feature for Dropbox Plus and Business accounts. Basic accounts do not have that feature.

There is no need to use foul language on here - even if it is 'beeped' out.

I have this exact same problem. I have Dropbox Plus, I'm using the mobile desktop version (Dropbox for S mode), I can make files available offline but not folders.

Any ideas why?

It would be so useful if I could do this!

That feature is only available on iOS and Android devices.

"That feature is only available on iOS and Android devices."
First of all: wrong! It is available on windows and Linux as well. Just apparently (?) not on windows tablets.
And if that is true, that is just plain dumb! Why am I paying for that crap, then? Switching to OneDrive!
