For how long will Windows 7 be supported?

[TrevW]

I'm thinking about paying for a Dropbox plan because the Google Drive app recently stopped working on Windows 7.  I want to be sure that the Dropbox desktop app will continue to FUNCTION on Win7 for the foreseeable future i.e., several years (not worried about tech support/updates).  Can anyone provide this assurance?  Cheers, TW.

Hi @TrevW, and welcome to our forum!

I’m afraid we can’t assure you of this either, since things may change over time and Windows 7 may not be supported a few years from now (however, for the time being you should be good). 

If anything changes though, you should be informed about the update and have enough time to make the proper adjustments.

I’m also including our Help Center article, which has more details on this.

I’ll be here, if you need something else.
