ExFAT file system support for the desktop app on Windows
Hi,
Can you please allow support for the exFAT file system for the Dropbox application in Windows? My primary data drive is exFAT so I can share this with an Ubuntu dual boot, it frustrates me that I cannot store my Dropbox on my Data drive though because you don't support exFAT, which Ubuntu requires!
Can we please have exFAT support for the Dropbox application?
Thanks,
Justin

I like it, thank you for response here!
*Tossing Dropbox\ to the root of C:\, with a shortcut then into Documents is gross, btw ;0

Hi,
I also need exFAT FS support as would be easier for me also. I see some users have asked for this also.
Please look into it.

I cannot reformat my drive as it is in use with nearly a terabyte of data on it. I was really shocked that Dropbox doesn't work with exFat on a Windows machine. I am definitely voting for exFat support.
