Dropbox Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  Windows Latest (@WindowsLatest) reported 35 seconds ago

  Windows 11 June 2026 update, which was supposed to make PCs faster, is crashing some PCs with BSODs, breaking OneDrive integration in File Explorer and custom folder icons, and causing other problems. We're seeing reports that Windows 11 KB5094126 is causing boot failures on some PCs, mostly HP enterprise hardware. The worst reports involve BitLocker recovery loops, Black Screen of Death/BSOD failures, Secure Boot signature errors, and error 0xc0430001. Affected models appear to include HP EliteBook 840 G10, HP ProBook 460 G11, HP Engage One Pro G2 AiO POS, HP ZBook, and some Dell Precision systems. The likely trigger is Secure Boot certificate handling + EFI partition space. On older images with a 100MB EFI partition, Windows may fail to update Boot Manager because there isn’t enough space, especially on HP systems where firmware recovery files can bloat EFI. There are also File Explorer cloud integration issues. OneDrive, and in some cases Dropbox or iCloud Drive, may stop opening from the sidebar/tray shortcut after KB5094126. Microsoft also confirms desktop.ini hardening can break custom folder icons or localized folder names from untrusted sources. KB5094126 is important, as it fixes 200+ security bugs, but be careful, as it could cause havoc on some PCs.

  What's the point of using smarter models if "smarter" means 10% better at finding obscure bugs and having a sassy attitude? Most of the true productivity gains that coding agents have to offer, which are finite, can be obtained using open-weight models for literally 1/100 of the price. The catch is that you actually need to understand the code you are working on. At the same time, I still think there's a viable business serving proprietary models. People are willing to pay for Dropbox even though FTP is free, and it's nice to throw a tough problem at a stronger model occasionally (if intellectual property limitations allow it). Plus, there's a whole frontier productizing this stuff. Unfortunately, Anthropic is currently in the business of spreading tall tales about future improvements, then shaking down enterprise customers. Most of it is based on 2010s LessWrong posts full of category errors, some of which I remember reading back in those days. And their recent hostility toward users in the name of safety is a result of the same ideological recklessness.

  @mitsuhiko Similarly, I still use the old version before 7. They try to force you to bind to their server-dependent version. I prefer to use dropbox to synchronize.

  @0xajka @Dropbox Have you tried doing the whole uninstall, reinstall? I had to do that one time with Dropbox. It was horrible. Now I have even a worse problem - but it’s not exactly Dropbox’s fault.

  @joinautopilot @charliebilello I can see why a bunch of those are sagging (joke? Or maybe I'm not joking): - Snapchat is in decline, less users overall. - Streaming subscriptions are becoming too expensive to keep up w/ inflation - X likely sagging ever since its lead advertisers left - Dropbox: user usage declining? (I use Google drive, Mega) - Alibaba: Chinese knockoffs, not bound to survive long - doordash: getting too expensive, way too many fees whenever I've used it, even WITH the discounts - Roblox: declining corporate - Snap: declining user usage, they constantly advertise Snapchat+ and idk anyone who actually uses that - Facebook: meta's side hussles were failing (notable: metaverse shutdown) - coinbase: app is ALWAYS buggy, slow, Base wallet became infested with scam tokens with no way to report, I personally stopped using it for this reason - pinterest: we just have AI to put together mood boards now, Pinterest not needed - Uber: same fee problem as doordash plus majority of gig drivers in my experience are the same few Indian drivers - uipath: likely not keeping up with the AI agent competition - bumble: women are probably tired of it tbh - lyft: same problems as Uber and doordash I can't answer for some others because I'm not as familiar or just can't think of a reason why they have poorer returns, so I dunno.

  3. Incentivizes Centralizing BlockSpace Market Ahhh the crux of the problem "... high-volume data ...". Bitcoin is a monetary protocol used for monetary txs any other use make Bitcoin useless. Monetary txs are small. If you want data then get a DropBox account.

  @iHerbMiddleEast Problem with iHerb is your delivery service to consumers. They’re a challenge to work with. I wouldnprefer if there is option to get my deliveries directly in a dropbox somewhere near and not go thru the 3rd party delivery service.

  @Dropbox I have loads of upload problems with Dropbox, scarce access to customer support inside the app, whilst when trying to get customers support from outside the app, the information says get customers support from inside the app. Have paid £19.99 for more than a year with little use benefit of the service, am considering closing the account.

  You ever login to your old Dropbox and see pics/vids you don’t even remember? Boyyyy, some mistakes were made 😩

  @spaceemotion All good ideas. I've thought about Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive. They suffer from persistence, login requirements, and users fiddling with things that change permissions. AWS is cheap, and I'm considering it, but I'm trying to pay for this off of my measly book sales, so...

  The ******** at the corrupt American Fork Police Department forgot to set the dropbox to private, so they accidentally made all the unredacted videos public. Before they realized their errors, somebody downlaoded them. Here it is.
