Hey fourbanks - sorry to jump in here, but I can see that Nancy opened a ticket for you the other day; did you get the chance to see her email yet?

yes, but it still shows up as 32bit as per screenshot ...

 Hi fourbanks,

Ha..🙂 Yes and No.

Your screenshot shows where your application executables are placed on, not what types (32-bit or 64-bit) they are (or not necessarily at least). In particular, the installer and uninstaller (themself) are 32-bit. I have no idea why (probably easier for Dropbox staff) and doubt you can receive meaningful answer why. On other side the Dropbox executable itself, despite of placed on such a place, is 64-bit. 😉 Again, don't get confused by the folder name.

Hope this clarifies the things to some extents.

Thanks, I think you have summed it up. Most 64bit software installs in the programs' folder, but this is a first for me over the past 20 years in which a piece of software 64bit has installed in the programs 86 folder. As you say, it doesn't matter as long as the developer knows of this 

It's OK now Walter as I now understand how this has happened, so all is now good 🙂 

Glad to hear that fourbanks - let us know if anything else comes up!
