Can't copy a .chproj file to Dropbox

[Aquarium-Sharon]

My company archives all their projects to DrobBox, but because a .chproj file contains zero bytes, Dropbox won't copy it. So...how do I archive my .chproj files?

Fun! You could ZIP the directory tree of files and put the ZIP into dropbox I guess? Or just create a new .chproj file by hand on restore - there is nothing in it, any zero byte file with .chproj file extension will work.

Zip the files. Well duh...Yes, that worked and I'm feeling rather foolish for not thinking of it in the first place. Thank you @alank99101739 !

This is literally the dumbest oversight by ADOBE. How hard would it be to add some meaningless text headers to these files?  "ADOBE CC - (c)2023" should do it. It just won't work with Dropbox. Having to ZIP these is a waste of time.

I'm going to file a support ticket and so should you!
