I've just redid my whole system and reinstall dropbox as well. I've also updated to win 10. Any idea anybody?

Everytime I post a request for Dropbox to start supporting Roaming Profiles on Windows 7/8 the message seems to get removed by a moderator. But when I search, there are alot of users asking for this. I would urge Dropbox to consider supporting roaming profiles as other solutions already are. And it is only a matter of time…

I have two different Windows “accounts” that I can log onto my computer under. (Only one is supposed to have all my data folders, etc..) Don’t ask me why or how, but when I was setting up Dropbox I had some trouble and ended up setting it up under both accounts. I just figured out that when I’m logged onto my…

Windows 7 64bit For some reason dropbox doesn't start with startup anymore because it needs administrator rights to start. If I try running the app normally without administrator rights, nothing happens, I see the cursor change to waiting for a few secs and then nothing. But if I right click and "run as administrator" it…

Ok, I've read a bunch of posts on this topic and I understand the issues about PST file size, upload speed, etc. I have a PST file about 500MB, which will stay about that size and I just want to back it up to Dropbox, preferably daily or at least weekly. So what is the best way to backup/sync an Outlook PST file? Should we…

Dell Promo 20GB not working even after reinstalling dropbox I just bought a dell and am trying to get the add'l 20GB space. There is a "Get 20GB disk space" notification but it says "Dropbox already installed. Try to uninstall and reinstall dropbox to redeem offer from Dell". Even after doing that it still isn't working…

Hi. I'm wondering why Drobox's LAN Sync feature is a hit or miss, at least for me. Sometimes it would download the files through the internet despite being on the same network with my other PC. I've done the following already: - Allow Dropbox through the firewall, I even tried disabling the firewall of both PC -…

I badly need help with my dropbox desktop client. This happened before and a simple uninstall/reinstall did the trick. Last week, the always connecting issue happened again. I tried reinstalling the client even to a newer version but it now says, "No internet connection". The issue first happened in my laptop. Thinking…

Dropbox.com will not sync with Dropbox on my PC. Thought I'd uninstall Dropbox and start again. When I try and uninstall, I get an NSIS Error message saying"error launching installer" Any suggestions, help and advice greatly appreciated.

The "My Documents" folder under my username on a Windows 7 machine appears to have disappeared and been subsumed by dropbox. This is a big problem for me as I never store documents in "My Documents" but most applications such as my kindle or adobe reader store all their files in the my documents folder (and this cannot be…

On Windows 7, my account is the administrator account, yet I could only install dropbox by running the install file 'as administrator' (right-click > Run as Administrator). I received a warning when doing this saying that Dropbox may not work properly but I was forced to ignore it because there was no other way for me to…

I've used 45gb of my 100 without issue. I've uploaded folders of 20gb in 3-4 hours. Trying to upload a folder that is 30gb. It is taking 24 hours. What is wrong? Windows 8.1. Norton Antivirus has Dropbox in allowed list. I've tried disconnecting and re-connecting. This has been going on for days now.
