Add Dropbox as a Cloud Service to Office 2013

Add Dropbox as a Cloud Service to Office 2013


It was quite a relief to see the Cloud integration feature rolled out in the current version of Office � Microsoft Office 2013. What disappointed users however, was the fact that apart from OneDrive, there was no support for other competing cloud services like Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. Fortunately, I came across a tweak that allows you to complete this task effortlessly, and lets you add Dropbox to Office 2013. It requires no modifications in registry settings � just a click to download a batch file, followed by some relatively easy steps to run the file.

The steps highlighted below will allow you to add any third-party cloud storage services such as Dropbox to Office 2013. Also, for the script to work properly you are required to be logged into Office. You can notice your account pic and details in the upper right corner of Office 2013 program you are using.
Download the script. Thereafter, browse to its location and double-click on it. When prompted, press any key to continue. Note: When you download the script it will probably be flagged as a �Potentially harmful application�. Here, simply, ignore the warning and decide to keep it at your computer instead of discarding it.
