      Hi all.
      Is there a way to change the folder in Dropbox where npp stores it’s cloud settings data?

        the normal setting is stored under settings->preferences->cloud but
        I assume you already aware of it.
        If you are, may I ask you to give an example what you try to achieve?

        Cheers
        Claudia

          Ha, well, as it turns out, my question turned out to really be “can you change the Dropbox folder on pre-6.8 versions where there was only a single “Dropbox” radio button, since I’m working on systems I can’t easily get permission to upgrade?”
          But honestly I didn’t realize newer versions had changed. Your post prompted me to go and read the release notes, and I’m guessing the answer is no.

            If I’m understanding the question correctly, the answer is yes, you can set/change the folder location. I don’t use Dropbox, but for Google Drive, I have to set up the application on my PC, then, for example, my location is Google Drive\Development\Npp. If I wanted to change it to Google Drive\Npp or something else, as long as that folder exists on Google Drive, I can change it. Note that I’m currently on version 7.3.3.
