I use this code as well but get the same error. I use code following as :
async Task Download(DropboxClient dbx, string folder, string file) { using (var response = await dbx.Files.DownloadAsync(folder + "/" + file)) { Console.WriteLine(await response.GetContentAsStringAsync()); } }
and Pass perameters like :
await Download(client, "/Apps/Retailme", "Retailme.exe");
But there is same error path/not_found

ABDUL_REHMAN If you're using an app with the "app folder" permission, you don't need to include the path of the app folder itself when making API calls, such as "/Apps/Retailme". The Dropbox API will automatically interpret your paths as being relative to your app folder.
So, for example, in your code you wouldn't need to include that "/Apps/Retailme". With how that code snippet is set up, you would instead specify a "folder" value of "", which would result in the final path of "/Retailme.exe" for a file inside your app folder.
