    Windows 7 Why did Camera Uploading switch from Picture Manager to Dropbox?

    Running Win7 SP1. I'm used to having Picture Manager automatically open and import photos from my camera when it got connected. Apparently, this changed recently and photos are now getting stored in Dropbox/Camera Uploads. I like it better the old way. Can I get it back?
