RIP Dropbox...

...on XP at least (that had you worried, I bet )

Stopped working on XP as of 29th August. Although I don't blame them for no longer supporting a 16yr old OS, it is a pain for me as it is my 'leave it and forget it' back up for a lot of my day-to-day stuff, shared across XP and later windows machines. Will have to manually back up from now on unless I can find some nifty work-around.

Yeah that did have me worried. ;)

You could try something which supports dropbox, like Duplicati:

I think the v2.0 preview does support dropbox?

Yes and no.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was.
Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary

Will have a butcher's at duplicati, thanks. May use it with onedrive though as this looks like it might be a bit more straightforward.
