  • Yes. While exporting replace the existing file. That should be fine.
  • Even in that case it should work. BTW, people who receive a shared link won't be able to edit the original file, it will be view only.

You can use TrueCrypt or VeraCrypt. It is a third party software, which you need to install in your office PC. These software lets you create encrypted data…
  • I noticed this happens to me sometimes when one/some of the files are being used/opened by a program, and some modifications to those files are made from another device/web. You may try closing the programs which might be using files in your dropbox folder, and it should complete the sync. You may also try restarting…
