    Hello, in the meantime Dropbox has released updates to its client that - among other things - have finally delivered the much-desired solution.

    I am very happy and it seemed right to update the discussion here on the forum.

     

    Have a nice weekend.

    Giovanni.

I usually use beta releases to make tests before our company users receive the new version of Dropbox client but ok, I have deactivated the option in my profile to test your suggestion.

I will back to you with some news when my laptop will update Dbx client.

Thanks 🙂

Ciao Megan.

I have installed latest stable build but the problem is not solved.

If I start Dropbox Backup I can't change the account in use and I can't tell Dropbox to backup my company laptop on the Enterprise account and not on my personal one.
