Dropbox StaffHi DanniViolet, thanks for messaging the Community!
End-to-end encryption is generally done by installing a third party program, which encrypts the files on your computer.
You then add the file to your Dropbox account, and in order to decrypt the file at a later date (or another device), you'll generally need to use the same program to do so.
I'll leave this thread open for suggestions from other users.
Thank you so much Jay. Would you be able to recommend a third party program?
