Share files and folders with friends that do not have Dropbox
Hi,
can I share files and folders with friends that do not have Dropbox?
Or is it necessesary for my friends to have Dropbox in order to being able to download my shared files and folders?
Than...

Dropbox StaffHi Affe, thanks for posting on our forum!
If you want your friends to download files from your Dropbox account, you can create a shared link for them. This doesn’t require them to have a Dropbox account of their own.
You can check more details on this here.
If there’s something else I can help with, let me know.
Thank you Nancy for helping me.
But, I clicked on your attached link and there I could read in Swedish:
"Om du delar med någon som inte har ett Dropbox-konto, kan den personen endast förhandsvisa filen eller mappen."
In my English translation this says that " if you share with someone who doesn´t have a Dropbox account, that person can only preview
the file or the folder ".
Does that mean after all that they can not download files or folders without an account?
Regards Affe
