Syncing folders with Dropbox
by pravirlal Mar 14, 2014 3:14AM PDT

I want to link one of my directory on PC with Dropbox. I need this for syncing all modifications in any files/folders in the directory on PC to be automatically done in the respective files/folders in Dropbox. I downloaded a utility "Dropbox Folder Sync" addon by satyadeep at the link given below. But while using this utility I'm getting the error "Sorry,the drive D:\ is not an NTFS partition".
My question is " is there any other utility that can simpify my problem"?

No.

It appears you may be new to PCs, partition types and such so my answer is no, there is no app that makes this any easier. While it's self evident what the problem is, I don't want to upset you by stating the obvious answer. I had hope you would reveal what format the drive D: is.
