Fantastic @AlisonLawton, I was initially under the impression that you had already installed the desktop application, however your last update made matters much clearer! 🤓We’re always just a post away in case you have further inquiries or thoughts in the future, so don't hesitate to reach back out here at any time. Happy Dropboxing & take care until we talk again! - Swede_IRL4 years agoExplorer | Level 3
