Feex says
If Tresorit.exe is waiting on an invite, that is Tresorit, not Dropbox. I would not create a Dropbox account to open a tresor.

What is Tresorit?

Tresorit is an encrypted file-sync product. Tresorit.exe is the Windows client. Dropbox is a different vendor. A Tresorit "tresor" is not a Dropbox folder.

If you have never used it

If work bought Tresorit for encrypted sync, this is Tresorit, not Dropbox. Download Tresorit.exe from tresorit.com/download. You join with a Tresorit account or an admin invite. Dropbox.exe is Dropbox. Tresorit markets end-to-end encryption for enterprises. That is their product, not Dropbox's default model.

What is it used for?

Encrypted tresors

Admin-controlled encrypted folders. Dropbox sharing is a different permission model.

Enterprise sharing and policies

Tresorit admin. Dropbox Business is a different console.

Desktop sync on Windows

Tresorit.exe in the tray. It will not sign into dropbox.com.

Who is it for?

  • Companies that standardized on Tresorit
  • People whose admin sent a Tresorit invite
  • Anyone who should not install Dropbox for a tresor

Current status

Actively developed. This article is the Windows desktop client.

How old is it?

Tresorit launched in the early 2010s (TSV year 2011) as encrypted enterprise sync. Dropbox is a 2008 general cloud. Swiss Post later acquired Tresorit. The Windows client is still Tresorit.exe.

Installed processes

These executables belong to this product when it is installed.

Installed processes
Tresorit.exe Tresorit desktop

Startup components

Tresorit can start with Windows from its own setting or work policy. That is not Dropbox.

File locations

Common Tresorit locations
Typical install C:\Program Files\Tresorit\Tresorit.exe

File formats

files you store in tresors

Common problems

Invite-only workspace

A personal Dropbox login will not join. Ask the Tresorit admin.

Two enterprise clouds

Tresorit plus Dropbox on one tree is an org problem. Ending one exe does not migrate the other.

Getting unstuck

Install from tresorit.com/download

A "Tresorit free" search ad is the wrong file. dropbox.com/install is the sibling.

Sign in with the Tresorit identity the admin created

SSO may be Entra or another IdP. It is still not a Dropbox password.

Check admin policies if a share is blocked

Tresorit governance, not a Windows firewall mystery, is the first stop.

Alternatives

Dropbox, Proton Drive, and a managed Nextcloud overlap. Dropbox is the sibling this article is not.

Official help and downloads

Start with the vendor. Random exe sites are not a support channel.

Official contacts
Download tresorit.com/download Official installer or vendor page

Official site tresorit.com/download Start here, not a random exe host

Related hardware

Encryption and sync want a working disk and network. A GPU does not matter.
