Hi - screenshots are now attached. Dropbox V173.4.6706 Status: "Everything is up to date" on the bottom and at the same time showing the 54 percent complete on top! Thanks in advance for any help

After finally having my 8TB HDD recognized and offered in the "Dropbox backup" dialogue - I selected the relevant folders for backup and started the long process of re-uploading 4+ TB of data.
