I can't check Dropbox in the system tray, so I checked Settings, and there it is, again, 216.3.4299. A number I can't unmemorize. 🤬🖕

11 months agoDid you toggle off the 'early releases' from your account's settings before installing the latest, stable version of the Dropbox desktop app L_?

I forgot to mention, I followed Ryan's link to my settings page, and that option isn't there. Perhaps a more in depth link, with all the /slugs would help.

You need to be more specific that this default settings page.

The "early releases" option should be a bit further down on that page L_ - did you find it to toggle it off?

Okay! It's under "Preferences-Automatic time zone". Thanks. I'll see if I can keep the stable version. That preference is usually set to off by default with products.

Is there a reason my Desktop shortcuts are now being synced? It's annoying, and all the solid filled green ticks appear at the center bottom of the icons, while the white green ticks are bottom left.

Are you using the Dropbox Backup feature by any chance L_?
A screenshot of what's troubling you would also help, so feel free to send us one in your next response.

The center solid filled green ticks turned into something else before I thought to screenshot them. Now I have square ones. I don't remember seeing these on the desktop before. But maybe they were there. I don't know if the backup thing is happening, but Desktop is not inside Dropbox, so while I have Dropbox being normal as for many years, I don't know why it would scope outside of Dropbox. -- And to make things stranger, as I was typing the above, all the Desktop icon mini icons just disappeared.
I see now the last stable version is 215. I'm seeing how that goes now.
And geez, look what's back. Center solid filled green ticks.
Now look at them.
