Dropbox made a pretty good effort here, but that can't keep old versions running forever...

The trouble with the newer version is that they limit your free access to 3 devices which is not enough.
So now that Dropbox has done the same I have stopped using dropbox with Boxcryptor Classic and have switched to MS OneDrive which works fine so long as you switch off the Files on Demand feature.
Dropbox has been very good and it is a pity that they have put profits before people, but such is the world we live in.
