Ending support for Win 8.1 Pro. I will not be upgrading the os. How do I sync once that happens?

I just noticed DB is ending support for Win 8.1 Pro.  I will not be upgrading my OS. How will I continue to sync files to my DB account. I tried looking for this answer but am missing it. Thanks

    You may be able to up and download via the browser (as long as browser versions are still supported), yes. However you wont be able to sync as you do now where it happens automatically - you will need to manually up and download the files that you use or edit
