Dropbox files no longer inherit folder permissions
Within my Dropbox folder, I have sub-folders with different Windows ACL permissions. Up until recently, whenever Dropbox synced a file it inherited its folder permissions perfectly.
Now it no longe...
I moved to OneDrive quite some time ago. Ended up being a fairly easy solution.
Same here - OneDrive provides the same functionality for what we need.
Cons - we still haven't entirely worked out what it does when 2 people inadvertently work on the same file at the same time. At least with Dropbox you got a clear 'conflicted copy'
Pros - seems much more stable running on a server using AlwaysUp, whereas Dropbox required periodic restarts, even after applying the various tweaks recommended in the AlwaysUp website
Hi rjwb,
How does Onedrive go about recovering the entire library back to a point in time if required, like in the event of a cryptolocker?
When I checked it out a couple years ago it didnt have that functionality, in fact all it allowed was the recovery of previous versions of MS Office docs - not the entire library.
The thread also discusses the lack of support from Dropbox, and various discussion on alternatives available to users. Best just to keep it all in the one area – while we’re on the topic
