Jürgen,

I did just that and backup folder is rendered in the window:

Now, after clicking OK, Dropbox pops up a warning telling me the file is going to be moved from the original folder. Moving back to no backup folder defined... Scary!

This message seems to be generated by LyX, and I suspect it occurs either because C:/Users/jcredberry/Dropbox/Sulan/Papers/DCHT/DCHT_2020_v3.lyx is locked or write protected or because somehow the directory is temporarily unavailable.

A little Googling turned up at least one report of Dropbox blocking access to files on a Win 10 PC that may or may not have been caused by a Win 10 update (in February). If you bump into this problem again, you might check the Dropbox icon in the system tray and see if it indicates that Dropbox is syncing. If so, that might be interfering with LyX writing the modified file.
