    Hi everyone,

     

    I just wanted to follow up on my message above.

     

    • The 404 error should never happen again. We've deployed the fix. Thank you so much for your help in finding the root cause of this issue
    • dl=1 and raw=1 now work exactly as you requested

    Please let us know if there is anything else you'd like us to add to the Capture links to make them even better.

     

    Thank you so much!

Hi, I did just try that there wasnt a box sayign screenshots & recordings just screenshots however capture is still overriding the ability to just take a screenshot!!??

 

Also not sure what your point was here as I want to save screenshots to drop box automatically but it doesnt anymore and I just keep getting the option to use capture which is  boring and tiem consuming when i just wnat to take a screenshot and ti to automatically save to my dropbox screenshto folders ..its working for all my colleagues just must have stupidly made an update to add capture to my computer and cannot get rid of it??

 

hopefully you have more advice,

many thanks,

Niki

    Hey Niki, hope you’re doing well!

     

    If you try to install the Dropbox Capture app again on your device, do you get an error that it’s already installed perhaps? 

     

    It sounds like it hasn’t been removed from your device, so I’d like to see what’s going on.
