Delete, edit, and organize
Solve issues with deleting, editing, and organizing files and folders in your Dropbox account with support from the Dropbox Community.
Hi there, I am new to Dropbox and I have uploaded now files to it but I am unable to work in the Word documents and use them as `working documents` or what I mean like documents that are not finished yet just to work in. Could it be that it is because I have a trial account?
Does anyone know if I need to pay to start working in the documents?
Hey @Dominique4, how are you today?
You should be able to edit Microsoft Office documents through our website with no problems, even with a free account.
To do that, open the document in question on our website, click the "Open" button right above the document, and then click on "Word for the web".
Let me know how it goes or if you're having any trouble.
