How can I open a shared link without having a Dropbox account?
Hello! How can I open a dropbox-link, even I´m not a dropbox user? My teacher sent a dropbox-link into a chat and I didn´t know what I should do with the link and how to open his file. Please help me!
Just click the link. You don't need to have a Dropbox account to view a share link. Dropbox may prompt you to log in or create an account, but it's not required to view the file.
