Hi, 

I am having the above issue on a fresh installed Qlik Sense Desktop version.

1. Installed the November 2019 Qlik Sense Desktop version on up to date windows 10 Dell laptop.
2. Created an App and opened it
3. Pushed the area to add data
4. A circle appears with the following text below "Initializing Add data" 
5. Noting mores happens

What to do? 

I tried to repair, run as admin but nothing works. 

Running the cloud version seems to work fine.

How to check if it synchronizes with DropBox?

i would suggest, uninstall Qliksense , and do custom installation and change installation folder to C: drive, and then check

Well, it worked, did a custom installation but did use the standard suggested folders (c-drive anyway) but now it seems to work. Really strange but nice it did work out, thanks 😃
