Hello,
I work remotely to my desktop on a frequent basis. I upload Excel files to Dropbox regularly from a remote computer. These files don't seem to sync very quickly; in fact, I have had to use Windows File Explorer to retrieve the files on my desktop. In other words, the remotely uploaded files appear in WFE pretty quickly, and don't appear in xplorer2 at all.
Other files seem to sync. However, they are usually not files I'm sitting and waiting for.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

Re: Dropbox sync
I don't work with dropbox so I can't say. Perhaps some other xplorer2 user can tell us?

Re: Dropbox sync
I use Drop Box.
I don't seem to notice a problem, but I may not understand.
Can you explain with an example?

Re: Dropbox sync
I'll give you an example on my end.
I fired up Teamviewer. Opened xlplorer2 at both ends and selected my Drop Box directory on both computers.
Dropped a 1.9 MB .xls file in Drop Box on one end - in less than 2 seconds it showed up on the other computer in xplorer2..
Round 2
Dropped 4 files totaling almost 7MB. Same thing.

Re: Dropbox sync
There are a couple of "Auto refresh" setting in the advanced options of x2... Would these affect the above issue?
