Boxifier not working with latest Dropbox update

Good morning , 

Is anyone able to assist with getting hold of @Boxifier team member ? They are completely unresponsive and email or post on their website not being allowed showing as pending. Original issue i had was as below (copy of the message to @Boxifier below)Does Boxifier still exist?​ 

I’ve been using your software for several years and have been very happy with it. However, over the past couple of months I’ve been experiencing persistent issues. I frequently receive the message “core not running,” and all of my previously synced folders are being removed from the Boxifier folder.

When I try to re-add the folders, it creates further problems — Dropbox begins deleting and re-uploading large amounts of data, causing several hours of disruption. Additionally, folders from my shared drives are being copied and converted into random files, while the originals remain untouched in their original locations.

Attempting to re-link the folders doesn’t work either; I get an error message saying that a folder with that name already exists in Boxifier. In Dropbox’s Selective Sync settings, I can see that the folder is listed and selected to sync, but nothing happens. The only workaround I’ve found is to completely delete the folder from Dropbox online and then re-link it on my PC — which again results in hours of syncing chaos.

I’ve tried reinstalling the latest versions of both Boxifier and Dropbox each time this occurs, but the problem persists.

Could you please assist me in resolving this issue? It’s been quite disruptive, and I’d really appreciate your help in getting things back to normal.

Last night its stopped completely following and Dropbox update to 243.4.6956, whatever i do no cant get it to work again and workflow is seriously impacted .

Can anyone help please , thanks Szymon

    It would be good to get work around or Razvan Boxifier​ perhaps can join in ? 

    I do apologize for the misleading title of this post it should have been BOXIFIER NOT WORKING WITH NEW UPDATED DROPBOX .
