missing Dropbox overlay icons, again...

[fcana]

Dear all,
i'm on windows 11 with last version of XY... no overlay on Dropbox folders. I tried all solutions found in the forum, starting from the FAQ one https://www.xyplorer.com/faq-topic.php?id=iconoverlays → i've just ten overlay icons (only the dropbox ones).
I can provide any other information on my system if needed... please help me!

Is Dropbox running?
Do you see overlay icons in file explorer?

This is the Status column, that's not icon overlays. And AFAIK the Status column only works with OneDrive. Could it be that you linked your Dropbox folder also to OneDrive?

onedrive is completely deactivated on my system.

the status column is a pretty new way to show the overlay icons in dropbox on file explorer, when in "list" or "details" view modes... on icon view modes became this:

On desktop (which in my system is also moved inside dropbox) are shown like that:

Aha, interesting. So why don't you try the latest XYplorer beta and check out the new Status column?

Really? And you're 100% sure you don't have OneDrive? Can you show a screenshot?

Over here, OneDrive is under "Microsoft OneDrive".

I have GoogleDrive and DropBox on Windows 10, and none of them show anything in the Status column. Not in XY, and not in File Explorer.

But XY shows Dropbox overlay icons without a problem.

I can confirm that also under "Microsoft ..." app I don't have any OneDrive app now. I just uninstalled it some time ago, and I think it's gone...
Under win 11 evidently Dropbox changed policy showing sync icons only on status column. I saw an alert some time ago about this new features of dropbox app. But... In a second, older, pc i own... win 11 shows overlay icons as in win 10. mystery!
Anyway... Status column works just fine here, so no problem. If you need some log/info about my system for going deeper in the analysis of this new behaviour don't hesitate to ask.
thanks
