Hello :)

Following the update of the Dropbox package to version 183.3.6931-28 x64, Dropbox requests permissions and triggers User Account Control (UAC).
I think this is for an update authorization request.

Isn't automatic updating blocked for this package?

Have a good day.

For your information, the client machine where the package is installed runs Windows 10.

Hi Johan,

thanks for the feedback. I've opened an internal ticket; Jimmy will take a look at it.

Hello,

were you able to reproduce the problem internally?

I can't find any scheduled tasks for launching Dropbox Update on my end; I don't understand how it can request an update.

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Hello,

We've made a change to disable the auto-updater; please check if the problem persists.

Would it be possible to get a screenshot of the User Account Control (UAC) prompt when it appears?

Thank you.


Best regards,

Hello,

is there a new version in the testing repository with this change?

No worries, I'll send you a screenshot from the UAC.

Hello,

Yes, absolutely, the new version, dated September 26th in the afternoon, is available in the testing repository.

Sincerely,
