Hi !

There is unsolved isue Upgrade your browser to use Dropbox - Dropbox Community (dropboxforum.com) and i can't find a solution.

$response = @{}
foreach ($key in $QueryOutput.Keys){

Hey zekka82, thanks for the nudge on this.

I've actually moved your post to the relevant thread. 

Would you mind letting me know which browser you're using and which version?

Thanks.

Dear Hannah,

Thank you for your response.

I use Ms Edge ver. 103.0.1264.62 

Windows ver.

Windows 11 Pro
ver 21H2
Build 22000.795
Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22000.795.0

Actually I think the problem is in the System.Windows.Forms.Form and System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser classes.
But there is no other way to automate the receipt of the authorization code. I really hope you can guide me how to solve the problem.

Best regards, Eugeny

Hey zekka82, sorry to jump in here!

When you try accessing our website on a different browser, do you notice the same thing? 

What if you use an incognito tab on Edge? 

I got the errorinfo on my Iphone 

which is as follows:

I get that error too, an email would be nice.

yangshaohua, have you also checked this on a web browser on your computer and you see the same thing? 

 superjames888, can you let me know the current browser you're using, as well as its version?

Let me know when you're both ready.

I have edge, but I think it is using internet explorer, because the app developer was stupid and did internet explorer.

I think you got confused, it is a app, and it asks to get a new browser, but when we do that, it does not use the browser. I am using the dropbox 20gb promotion, and it will not work

Would you mind sending us a screenshot of the error, superjames888?
