That will most likely involve upgrading the PC as well.

1431521 2017-02-07 03:04:00 Indeed, move to another system. I really only use Dropbox, instead of email, to occasionally transfer larger files to a couple of contacts I have overseas. I have Linux available to do that with Dropbox though.

1431522 2017-02-07 22:32:00 What size files are you using? I still use XP home, but use dropbox via my phone to upload/download stuff. Then transfer from the phone to PC the_bogan (9949)
