(8 hours ago)admin Wrote: The Dropbox folder may not actually be stored on the local hard drive, but rather in the cloud, with only a directory link (placeholder) remaining locally. It should be noted that system/disk backup images have certain limitations when restoring files in file mode, such as not supporting NTFS link mechanisms (e.g., symbolic links, directory junctions, etc.). Therefore, we recommend that you mount the backup image and directly check whether the Dropbox folder contents are included.

Of course, backing up your Dropbox folder using file backup is the method we recommend.
The Dropbox folder and files are stored on the local hard drive as well as the cloud, I have double checked this by still being able to open the files without an Internet connection.
But following the guide to mount the backup image I am now able to see the Dropbox folder and all the files are present, so they must have been backed up even though I can't see them by just browsing the image in file mode.
Thanks for your help.
