    Hey MWoodsMusic, thanks for joining the discussion here.

     

    I'm afraid that there's no other option apart from upgrading your computer's OS to a supported desktop environment. 
     

    in addition, you should be able to access your Dropbox account and files normally through a web browser.

     

    I wish I had a better answer than this, Mike.

Hi MortenH, I've merged you to this thread to keep similar queries together.

 

You can have a look over the earlier posts to understand the changes with the system requirements for the Dropbox desktop application, and why they were made.

So what you say is that I do need a new computer?

    If your computer can't upgrade to a newer OS, and you want to use the Dropbox desktop application, then you would need a newer compatible device to use it.
