Re: Can I install and run Dropbox from a bootable USB with OS that loads into RAM?

Hi LANdpLAN,

Hm..🤔 Yes, for sure, interesting question! Are Windows 10  and Windows 11 different OSes or are Mac Sonoma and Mac Ventura different OSes? 🧐 Also, is OpenBSD different than FreeBSD? 🤷 Many other similar examples are possible.

I'll let you decide what's the correct answer for every one particular case. 🙂 For sure the person who wrote the help topic cited by you has to learn a lot like you do. Unfortunately, this is not the only such help topic in Dropbox documentation. Be careful and don't believe fully to everything - help is written by people - people make mistakes. Use your own intelligence in such cases to decide what is correct. 😉

Congratulations for the meaningful question that hits a pain of people responsible to Dropbox docs. 😁
