Should or should I not use a command to update Dropbox on Windows?

Hi guys, I found out something really strange concerning Dropbox builds. First of all, I have been autoupgraded to 212.4.5767 some time ago which I think is the latest standard, yet I don't seem to find out the Forum post on it. Yesterday I launched this command on Windows run box:

winget upgrade --all

It gave me a Dropbox update, but apparently it was a beta build like 213.3.x. I then needed to launch Dropboxinstaller.exe which I had in order to go back to 212.4.5767. What is the situation right now? Should I stop using winget for now or what else?

Bye!

Hey @Michele_B, thanks for reaching out to us again.

I don't think it's necessary to use the upgrade command for Dropbox.

The Dropbox installer should update automatically when there's a new stable version out.

You can see the updates on the builds on this page.

Let me know if you have more questions!

Hi Hannah, thanks for your reply. Basically, the command I ran is a standard Windows option which should upgrade any application is installed on my machine.

Bye!
