Hazel not Working on non-synced folders

Hi Support,
I have 2 computers and wanted to keep them in sync. I read that Hazel has problems with dropbox folders so I chose unsynced folders and I am using hazel to move files to synced folders. It seems to work fine on one computer and does not seem to work on the other computer.

Try it on Dropbox folders first. The issue is relatively rare and it's worth trying before trying to do anything more complicated.

Tried on the dropbox folder as well. Even then it only works on one folder on one computer only. Is there license restriction. I don't want to buy another license for my other computer.

Hazel can be used on two machines. What do you mean by only working on one folder on one computer?

The scenario is this. I have two computers, a work desktop, and a laptop. I wanted to sync them both with rules on the files I download. Once the files get downloaded, I move it to a dropbox folder. The Hazel rule is working fine on my laptop (I setup first) and but not working on the desktop.
