Dropbox 226.4.5094 offline binary has superfluous in the filename

Hi MetaAdaptiva, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Could you clarify exactly what you mean with the filename for the file you downloaded?

Which version of the Windows offline installer did you download, and was it for Enterprise users?

Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!

Hi Jay,

Thanks for the prompt response.

We are trying to download the non-Enterprise offline installer.

Kindly refer the attached screenshot which shows difference in the binary name.

Could you please confirm whether the offline installer will have the same naming convention in future releases too?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi MetaAdaptiva​,

So I checked internally with the team and they advised they can't guarantee naming convention for stable builds in the future and the current one with "Superfluous" in the name will likely be updated and phased out.

I hope this helps.

Hi MetaAdaptiva​,

It actually looks like this was a bug that just affected the file name of the installer and it is currently being fixed.

Hi Neal​ ,

Thanks for the clarification.
Please let us know once the bug has been resolved.

Hi Team,

Could you please provide the update on this case?

Hi MetaAdaptiva​,

I'm still waiting for an update from the team. I'm hoping I'll hear something later today but I'll keep you posted the moment I have an update.

Hi MetaAdaptiva​,

The fix for this will be rolled out in the next release and the filename will return to the regular naming format. Keep in mind though in the meantime, you can change the file name yourself in the meantime.
