With Onedrive not supporting 7 I think Dropbox have missed a trick. Many like me ditched Onedrive and installed Dropbox only to discover that Dropbox is bending over backwards to ape Onedrive. My main computer is 10, secondary is 7, plus updated Android. I will NOT change 7 for the benefit of Dropbox, Google, or any other company that rides roughshod over the requirements of users.

 

This "better performance and security enhancements"  that make it 'incompatible' is a blind - a ruse to conceal the fact that companies don't want to waste time 'supporting' an older OS. I don't need a 'better performance' from Dropbox, and the unrestricted files in my Dropbox folder need no 'security enhancements'.
