The Dropbox desktop application will no longer be supported for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 on October 22nd

Hi. I am on Win 10 & not using Dropbox in compatibility mode. Infact, I uninstalled Dropbox as per ur support page, deleted all folders, reg edit entries and reinstalled using the latest installer 1.3.911.1, ins

talled Dropbox files in a different folder but still I am getting the same Support error.

I am using Windows 10 Enterprise for Virtual Desktops OS Build 19045.5131   

Please check and fix the issue as I am unable to use Dropbox due to this.

I wanted to attach the logfile but the attachment button is also not working here. I tried 2 different browsers. So have to make a fresh post.

I then tried the offline Dropbox installer which also failed to work on my Win 10. The error log is copied below as attachment button here is not working.
