Dropbox is easy-to-use Cloud storage and File file-syncing Service. It allows you to share and access your photos, docs, videos, and files from anywhere. Windows VPS users can also install dropbox on their server to share the files.
Note that we allow dropbox to be installed in Windows VPS, only with the LAN Sync option disabled. When the LAN Sync option is enabled, VPS consumes excessive bandwidth and generates unusual outgoing UDP traffic on port 17500. Follow the below instructions to disable the LAN Sync feature in the Dropbox client.
