Hello Ronald H. 

My use of Boxifier was circumstantial, I wanted the data of an application I was using to be saved in Dropbox - but I am not using it anymore, so I can quit using Boxifier, no need to replace it at the moment.

The Boxifier folder is still in Dropbox and all the files that had been synced by Boxifier are still there (there are no links, rather copies of the files that are outside Dropbox).

Did uninstalling Boxifier solve the Dropbox issues for you?

Dear S34W0LF 

Thank you for the quick reply! 

It is strange that I tried using Dropbox with Boxifier not running but still had the endless synching issue.

I will try the Boxifier uninstall and let this Forum know what happened!

Regards,

Ronald
