Dropbox for Windows is a client software for use with the popular Dropbox online storage service. For more information see the [http://www.dropbox.com/ Dropbox Homepage].
== 3.6.5 and above ==
As of June 2015 and version 3.6.5 you can no longer extract the installer and make your own silent installer. The new Dropbox installer does support a silent switch /S and installs at MACHINE level. Therefore you can uninstall silently too.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Dropbox\Client\DropboxUninstaller.exe" /InstallType:MACHINE
You can run the uninstaller silently
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Dropbox\Client\DropboxUninstaller.exe" /InstallType:MACHINE /S
== 3.6.4 and below ==
An alternative to the method below is to use Innosetup [http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php]and ISTool [http://sourceforge.net/projects/istool/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/istool/] to create an ISS file and compile it to an installer. Download the latest dropbox.exe install it on a test system or extract using 7zip. Copy all the files to two source folders in your Innosetup source folder called 'embedded' fr the BMP files and {app} for all the EXEs and DLLs. These need to be subfolders of the location of the ISS file.
