Same issue, looking at the event viewer gave me to same error. Doing a google search for it brought me to this thread. 

I have to give up, I will close my account, there are lots of other cloud storage providers

It's been some time since my original post, and I've learned a lot since then. The PC affected by the issue had an Intel 13th generation i9 processor, which is known to have instability issues that become more apparent as the processor ages. There's a wealth of information available on this problem, so I suggest doing a quick search to see if you might be affected.

I want to emphasize that this processor may or may not have been related to the crashes involving the Dropbox certificate store. Intel has provided several fixes for this issue, most of which involve updating the BIOS to better manage the processor environment. However, none of these fixes were 100% effective for me. I achieved the best results by using the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility to underclock the processor. Interestingly, the benchmark performance was actually better when the processor was underclocked.

In the end, I persuaded the PC manufacturer to replace the processor, and I haven't encountered any of these issues since the replacement.

Si le problème semble persister, c'est peut-être parce que le disfonctionnement de Dropbox serait une conséquence de la corruption de l'index de recherche Windows (qui peut d'ailleurs occasionner d'autres problèmes.

Voici la procédure recommandée, que j'ai appliquée, qui semble marcher ! 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Search

Forget it... I had to rebuild my entire windows installation and the same issue is going on....

I 2nd the motion. As a developer u should never log an error that is an expected outcome in some scenarios. An error should always indicate a problem that need fixing.

BTW:

• still happing as of 2025!
• Did a clean install if win11 on a new rig.
