The new Dropbox sync info window (v224.4.4811, 2025) is too vague, especially for large folders (e.g., my 350GB folder). It shows “74 files remaining” but doesn’t list which files or what’s happening (e.g., redownloading, indexing). Older versions had better sync details. Please add these features to the sync info window:
- Clickable Files: Allow clicking on files in the sync window to open them directly in their location.
- Show Waiting Folders/Files: Display a clear list of folders and files waiting to sync, including their paths and sizes, to identify bottlenecks. Giving clear marking of files that are yet to sync or not.
- Detailed Sync Info: Provide specific details (e.g., file name, progress percentage, status like “downloading” or “verifying”) for each file/folder in the sync queue, similar to pre-2020 versions. Also any permission errors.
These changes would make sync tracking transparent and user-friendly, especially for large datasets. Thanks for considering! Currently I feel this is amazing that it is not standard.
The last option is for having a simple way to have mutliple folders for mutliple windows users. Currently it is almost impossilbe to use the same drop box folder for two users.
