    Microsoft support couldn't fix it either. I had to exit S-mode and download the full Dropbox. It seems the microsoft website is not quite telling the truth. Thanks for your input, Mark

Seems as if MS have bogged the system.  Can't load Dropbox from anywhere else than MS store and it only offers the S mode.  S mode is useless in Win 10.  Back to Win 7 !!

      Hey HSG-DH, thanks for joining the topic!

       

      If your device isn't running S mode, can you confirm for me if you downloaded the Dropbox app from our website here?

       

      Otherwise, can you let me know if you're getting any specific errors when trying to open the app?

       

      Keep me posted!
