    You have to use the Preinstalled version of Dropbox. You cant just install one

    David - as already said, you cannot install one. If you have you need to wipe back to factory install to get the space. Simply uninstalling the one from the web doesnt work.

I'm having the same problem. I installed DropBox from this site on my new Windows 10 machine, forgetting there was a "DropBox 20 GB" on my desktop.

When I tried to run the promo version, it said DropBox was already installed, and to uninstall it then try again. So I uninstalled the one I had downloaded, but the 20 GB offer version still says there's an installed version.

Is there any solution to this problem?

Thanks.
