Hey asm1974! Thanks for giving that a try.
Before installing the beta app version, did you enable early releases for your Dropbox account via your web preferences here?
Please scroll down that page a bit, toggle the setting On, and try to install the beta app version again.
Let me know how this goes.
- Great ! I will try it. Many thanks.
I went to the link provided for the Beta and ended up with Dropbox version 167.4.4719 installed. It did not fix the problem for online-only .txt files when trying to open them with Windows 11 Notepad program. I receive "Unspecified error". I can open the file with a different text editor, though.
Good news! I allowed the early releases in the preferences of my Dropbox account, then I installed the recommended file above. It worked! Thanks for the solution.
No, I hadn't enabled early releases--I thought that only affected automatic updates, and since the version I was on (167.4.4719) was a higher number than the recommended beta release (167.3.4684), I figured I must have the fix.
In any case, I did as you recommended, enabled early releases, tried to download 167.3.4684...and ended up with 168.3.4769 instead! But the problem seems resolved in the version I've ended up on, so I won't complain.
Thank you.
