Hello, Drop box appears to me to put every file / directory into a table that is not navigable via VO left/right/up/down keys. Either look for a table with one column and N rows or use the item chooser and search for "tile". This should bring up a list of drop box items. Best wi

I have good news on this front, you don’t need the website as you can access the smart sink within the app. The easy way is for any folder you can do VO Shift M, and up arrow to Smart Sink. Right arrow and hit enter on online only. The other method, go to your menu extras with VO shift MM. And V
