Dropbox StaffHey NuggetMagic, Righ is referring to defaulting the app to opening in their Finder.
You can do this by going to the General tab in your desktop app's Preferences (as shown in their screenshot).
You'll find this after clicking on the Dropbox icon, selecting your avatar that's on the top right of the menu, and choosing Preferences.
However, the issue should now be resolved.
Could you check if the issue persists for you and let me know?

Yes, that's generally how I gave default Finder access to Dropbox, but in my Dropbox app I have two Avatar icons, one at top right, as you say, and one at bottom left. However, the one at top right doesn't give me access to my Preferences, but the other one does. Ortherwise the instructions are as you gave, and I've provided screen shots of the correct settings in my previous posts.
As for the Issue - yes, it's still working okay - three days now, but I'll update you if it fails again with the error as in the thread title.
