Is bird seed just organic cat food?

That's a virus alright. You can manage to make it dormant, but you'll never be rid of it.

Hi all, I'm currently working on a project that because of the current climate ( COV and his mates ) I need to be able to access remotely, I have been using Dropbox and directly opening the project from there , but, I'm sure there's a better way of doing this. Never used Github before ( although I do have an account ) would this be a more efficient / correct way of doing this ? Any advice would be good

As long as you are the only person working on the project, a local copy - via Dropbox or any - is more than enough...
If it is a team-effort, go for git...

Even as a one-man-band, Github is better: you get change logging, rewinding, and such like as well as source distribution.

That's what I'm thinking Paul - I just need to learn how to use it  - does it integrate ok with VS ?

Oh yes - a load better than SVN did.
This is built into VS now, so it works almost seamlessly - you get a "Source control" menu on your projects, and "Commit" etc on your solutions.

There is a plug-in (for VS2017, at least) and it integrates well.

Go with GitHub: not only do you get file access from multiple l=laces, but you get change logging, rewinding when you screw up, and an unofficial-and-not-to-be-relied-upon-in-isolation backup system.
It's not too bad to use at all: This was my early experience: Getting started with GIT, Visual Studio, and BitBucket[^] but know that it's owned by MS, it's a whole load easier: using git with visual studio 2019 - Google search[^] will give you loads of info.

Is bitbucket part of Github ?

No, BitBucket was / is a separate GIT server.
I use GitHub now - unlimited private repositories for free with up to three collaborators!

If you have the possibility / you want to host it, you might go for Subversion as well (i.e. Tortoise)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I found Tortoise OK, but would have a 'funny' at times when you tried to upload a new file rather than changes to the project (this bit the entire firm, not only me and lead to creation of the song 'Sqash The Tortise', think Elmer Fudd 'Kill de Wabbit'). I have noticed Dropbox has upgraded and changed it's interface, what & why?

I've been using TortoiseSVN and then TortoiseGit for the last 20 years, and can't recall any 'funny' issues caused by Tortoise itself: any problems we ever had were typically caused by the network, or the repository server.
The only problems we've ever had with 'uploading' a file (did you mean add to repository?) occurred when we tried to add very large files ( > 50 MB ) to a GIT repository. But that's not a Tortoise problem, it's a GIT problem: you have to use GitLFS for large files, and then you need to properly set up TortoiseGIT so it uses the correct command on push.
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)
