Hi Walter,

So far (1 day) no probs on this OS.

It could happen on any file I was using loaded from Dropbox - which, to be fair, is the majority but definitely not just one file. 

I haven't asked MS, mainly because I hadn't experienced a problem with non-Dropbox files and also because I found the similar issue in the forum.

Thanks,

Brian
