Installed 214.3.5140 and the behavior when I take a screenshot changed

    Hi Walter,

    It seems that using the dropbox.com/installs/upgrade-latest-version page got me the latest beta.... :(

    I was finally able to download the latest stable client build - 214.4.5217.  I was able to find it by googling "Dropbox forum latest stable client build."  Is it supposed to be that hard? 

    After installing 214.4.5217, I see that the issue is fixed.  The usual/normal behavior is back: I press Print Screen and the screenshot is saved to my Dropbox Screenshots folder, but I don't get that annoying little preview of the screenshot in the bottom right corner of my Windows desktop.  It therefore seems that this was a "feature" in the beta... If it was intentional, then they haven't gotten it quite right yet... It needs a setting for toggling the preview on/off.  :)

    I did turn off the early access toggle switch.

    Please confirm/correct any questions/assumptions in this post and my previous post.  :)

    Thank you.
