      Yes yes yes
      They update Dropbox all the time, no apparent difference, but it always creates its own new entry as a total new folder in my Start menu ( Win 10) which I then have to delete*, because I keep my Start menu tidy and don't want every **bleep** programme creating its own folder. In my more cynical moments I'm sure that's the main reason why they issue update. So that they can place their own entries in our Start menus. Why else would they run an installer that doesn't give users a choice of where to put the links?

      *I just use a batch file or PowerShell script to delete the new folder each time.

    Today, suddenly my desktop version doesn't show anything in "Recent files" view when clicking the icon in the notification bar. Not very convenient, and I don't get why this has changed, unless it's a bug in this release.

      I noticed this too a couple versions ago (also running Win7, x64), but then saw when clicking the icon that the default display had switched to "Notifications". Change it back to "Recent Files" by clicking that and it should be the new default whenever you click the icon in the future. In case that's it.

        Thanks for your reply. However, the tab Recent files is active (tried switching back and forth too) and it's empty. Now same at second computer too, Win10 x64.

        Definitely a bug in the latest update.

    I use dropbox from many years in my PC (Win 7 64 bit) but since few days it stay freezed in initial connection state: dropbox_freezed.png

    I tried to uninstall/reintall reboot but nothing happens.
