    I have no "further queries", just the "original queries'.

     

    How long will my upload take?

     

    Why did dropbox remove this information from my paid service?

      Bumping this, in the hopes of getting an answer.

       

      Please note I am not posting to provide "feedback" or a "comment" for consideration.

       

      This is a problem and I was hoping to get to a solution from someone knowledgable.

       

      Can I roll back to a version of dropbox that supports this? If so, which version? Where do I find that?

        Hi R S12, keep in mind that we've checked with our team and can confirm that they're aware of some issues causing the feature's unreliability. 

         

        Unfortunately, we don't have a timeline for fixing it yet, as this could have multiple causes . But we can look into it further via email if that's ok with you, and we'll do our best to help out further. 

         

        Thanks!
