- **What is it?**: Encrypted enterprise sync

  **Still current?**: Yes, see Current status

  **Official download?**: Use the vendor link in this article

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.

## System requirements

Values follow the publisher's public guidance. Workload still changes the real need.

### Minimum

| Operating system | A current supported Windows 10 or Windows 11 release, per the vendor |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| RAM              | Enough for Windows plus this app. Heavy projects want more.          |

## Resource profile

- **CPU demand**: Follows what you open inside the app

  **RAM demand**: Follows documents, tabs, or libraries

## Installed processes

These executables belong to this product when it is installed.

| Tresorit.exe | Tresorit desktop |
| ------------ | ---------------- |

## Startup components

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

## File 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.

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