I'm getting an error there's an issue with Dropbox and Google's regulations when opening Word files.

Hello,

I am contacting you because when I want to open a Drobox file by doing "open in" Word for example, it displays an error message and how the Dropbox request does not respect Google's regulations (attached is the screenshot of the error message). However, it works very well on my laptop.

I checked and JavaScript is allowed in the browser which is Chrome. Has this already happened to one of you?

Kind regards.

Mike
