Description freeeasyranger 2023-10-03 13:37:30 UTC 
Description:
Since upgrading to 7.6.2.1, opening many/most files I have in my Dropbox folder, I get the message: "This file has been locked by another user. You can open in R/O only....etc". If I then move the files to my C:\ drive, I can open them without warnings. This is happening to some (not all) Writer and Impress docs. 

Actual Results:
Only allows opening docs in R/O mode

Expected Results:
n/a


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
Opened the documents without warnings, even if launched from Dropbox folder.
