Cannot establish a secure connection after dropbox update to 111.4.472
After the dropbox app (Window 10) updates itself to the latest 111.4.472 version, I'm getting this 'Cannot establish a secure connection'.
I've checked my time on my laptop, router. It's fine. I've disabled firewalls and the whole Eset Security. I've checked my ports. Everything is fine. I've turned off the proxy setting inside app. Scanned my system for viruses, nothing fount. The only solution is to revert back to the older version, but if I do so, the app will update itself so I'm at the beginning.
I've just received some news that I'd like to share with you all here!
It appears that ESET has fixed the problem that was causing this error.
For anyone running ESET on their device, please update to the most recent version of ESET to update to the software.
Once you've done this, you should be fine to revert back to the latest stable version of the Dropbox desktop app. You can install this from here.
Otherwise, you can just allow the app to auto-update to the latest stable when a new version is released.
Let me know how it goes!

Further to my previous post, I have now tried to access my Dropbox on three computers, and they are all showing this message. I can access Dropbox and make changes from my phone though.
Thanks @bioman. Your advice worked. Many thanks Nicole52
I have seen 2 solutions ...
1. Allow a Beta version to be installed ... Open dropbox.com; click the icon in the upper right; click 'settings' in the dopdown list; scroll down to 'Early releases and set to 'On'2. In eset, allow dropbox to be exempt from SSL/TSL filtering ... Open eset; F5 for advanced setup; click 'Web and Email'; click 'SSL/TLS'; at 'List of SSL/TLS filtered applications' click 'edit'; scroll through the list of applications and click on dropbox and dropboxupdate
OK?

Bioman,
You have saved my sanity! Thank you so much!
Как исправить ошибку соединения, в следствии неверной системной даты? У меня правильная системная дата и время, но дропбокс выдает ошибку, что не может соединиться из-за не верной системной даты
Me too have this issue, Using Eset anti virus. Disabed it still can't work. Restarted router, re installed Dropbox app on my windows 10, Checked my date and time system time. Everything i done still can't get dropbox to work. Only using firefox to access my dropbox with no issue.
