Linux Headless Client Stuck "Upgrading Dropbox"
Debian 10 Dropbox daemon version: 119.4.1772 Dropbox command-line interface version: 2020.03.04 dropbox.py status reports "Upgrading Dropbox..." forever. Sync still works. Other headless installs I have report daemon v120.3.4579. Googling on this issue seems to indicate that I need to install stuff like libatomic. The issue is that I do not have, and can not get, root on this box. How can I resolve this stupidity without root? I installed the daemon last night, so apparently nobody bothers to update the download page with the latest version.Solved1.7KViews1like5Comments
Dropbox no longer syncs automatically on my Windows 7 computers
Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong board. This problem just started today. I have had a free dropbox account for a number of years. I'm very happy with dropbox. However, starting yesterday dropbox no longer connects up automatically to update changes to my stored files. My dropbox is installed on a Windows 7 machine. I have the same problem on a second W7 machine. One machine is at my home, the other is at work. separate networks, separate connectivity, both machines have worked perfectly with dropbox for 10+ years. I'm thinking maybe dropbox no longer suppports W7? Does anyone have a suggestion where to start in resolving this problem? Thanks!!Solved3.9KViews1like26Comments

Dropbox unexpectedly quit Your files are safe. Restart Dropbox
We are getting error message as "Dropbox unexpectedly quitYour files are safe. Restart Dropbox..." repeatedly while files are getting synced to dropbox, this might have happened after Dropbox update of 120.4.4598. We are using Windows 10 OS.Solved1.8KViews2likes7Comments
