Can I get notifications of changes made to my files?
Hi, we have a folder on dropbox with a couple people at work.
I shared the whole folder but there is only 1 item in it so far.
If I change file or add a comment it should give a notification to e...
- They should get the notification as long as they have Dropbox running AND they've turned on notifications within Windows (I assume?) and the Dropbox client itself.
Mark is correct. The notifications you would receive for a file being updated are desktop notifications and they aren't persistent. The notifications section within the Dropbox app is used for new shared folders, comments left on your files, etc., and not file updates.
If you're on Windows 10, the Action Center might hold on to them.

Unfortunatelly we are still working with Windows 8. So if I put a new comment in the file or I change the file, my co-workers will only receive a short text balloon saying that there has been a change or a comment has been added? There is nothing else you can see it at a later stange within the dropbox-app on the computer?
