Can't start Dropbox
I'm getting an error message that Dropbox can't start on my Mac (running macOS Monterey). I tried an advanced reinstall of Dropbox to no avail. Here's the error text. Any help would be so appreciated...

Buonasera, qualcuno può aiutarmi? Ho installato dropbox su windows11 ma non riesco ad avviarlo.....come posso risolvere? Non mi compare nessun messaggio di errore, lo vedo fra le applicazioni ma poi non si apre.
Fino ad un paio di giorni fa funzionava, poi è comparso questo simbolo (sembra una scatolina marrone) accanto ai file e non sono più riuscita nè ad aprire nè a sincronizzare i file su dropbox. Quindi l'ho disinstallato e reinstallato ma niente 😕
