Showing files from a shared access dropbox in my file explorer
Can I show files and folders from a dropbox that I'm not the owner of, but have shared access to in my File Explorer in Windows 10? Many thanks Ian

Super User IIHi Ian,
You are right in that you need to install Dropbox on to each individuals machine with their own email address and password.
Once you've done that you need to share a folder between all people. You can do that at www.dropbox.com/share (see www.dropbox.com/help/19).
All of the people will then need to accept the share and it will appear on there account as well :)

Many thanks for your kind response.
Sorry, I clicked on the 'Accept as Solution' by mistake.
I've followed the instructions using the link to /help/19, but when I enter a valid email address and click Add, I get a message saying Windows doesn't recognise the email address.
Are you able to advise me as to why it's not being accepted.
Many thanks
Ian
