You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Quicken Backups Delayed due to Dropbox app
In the last several months Ctrl-B to backup Quicken, reports errors because a "third party" = Dropbox??? has the active file locked. The backup actually happens, but the process generates errors. Then, the backed-up, active file sometime will not load. Note the active file is kept on the computer drive while the backup is on Dropbox.
Hours on the phone with Quicken support has not helped. Windows 11 may be part of the issue.
So far the only solution is: after working in Quicken, let time pass; then attempt the back-up.
I will give it a whirl and let you know.
Nothing seems to make a change in the errors. Turned off Dropbox sync with difference. Waited from the time I last worked in Quicken for an hour, the tried; no difference.
Copying the datafile itself to the backup folder using file manager is not the same.
