    Why has my Dropbox installation on my 10.13.6 partition on my internal hard drive self-updated to Dropbox 68.4.102, but I can't find that here? I have another 10.12.6 partition on that internal hard drive but I use it only rarely and it won't self-update unless I leave it in use for a while. I'd like to download the 68.4.102 version, reboot into 10.12.6, quickly install Dropbox 68.4.102, and then return to 10.13.6, rather than sit there in 10.12.6 until the upgrade happens automatically. Also I have several external hard drives with among other things minimal 10.12.6 and 10.13.6 installations on them (for diagnosis and repair of internal hard drive partitions when necessary) and I'd like to upgrade Dropbox on each of them without sitting around awhile with each of them in turn being the boot partition. So please put 68.4.102 here where I can download it, as you have with previous versions!

        Thank, but that's not much help for someone using a Mac running OS 10.12.6 and 10.13.6.

        I see that about an hour after you posted your response, Stable Build 68.4.102 appeared on these pages, and I'm about to download it. Strange that my computer self-updated to that build many hours before it was posted here. When I download it I am going to see if there are any differences between what I will now download and what installed iteself yesterday.

        Thanks, sametm. I downloaded it (didn't install it yet since I'm currently booted into the 10.13.6 partition on which it self-updated yesterday) and on careful inspection it appears to be identical with what installed itself yesterday. At close of business today I'll install it on all the other 10.12.6 and 10.13.6 installations on four different drives. Anything worth doing is worth doing to excess ;-) . Once in a while all this redundancy pays, big.

    Thanks for using Dropbox! Here are the user-visible changes for v67:

    • Make Dropbox Badge preferences accessible.
    • Fix scaling for the sign in modal on Windows for high DPI screens.
    • Slightly increase the stability of the desktop app.

      You also added a search bar in the Dropbox client for both Windows and Mac!

      It's very neat! But why isn't this in the release notes?

    Since when does the Dropbox sync client include a browser?

      Dropbox has included a web engine for several releases to power parts of our user interface.

        It is simply annoying, a huge browser for displaying some UI elements. I removed the client for now. Hopefully this "trend" will stop at some point.

    This version has some issues when upgrading/clean install from last stable build: 66.4.84

    I noticed that when my current version keeps updating but failed. It is always showing 0x8000400 error and the CSR replied it was windows issue in previous post. But acutally it is not as I can install the latest beta version 68.3.92, and then install this stable version 66.4.84 again with no issue. Hope you would be able to check.
