Dropbox won't load in my Windows 10 device.

Dropbox suddenly won't load in windows 10. I've uninstalled it, but still no go. I hit the icon in Start Menu and a little blue circle whirs and then ... nothing.

    Hey rnewsom, I'd be happy to help you look more into this! 

     

    Did you reboot your computer since you first noticed this and do you happen to be running any antivirus, firewall or VPN/proxy setting on your device(s)?

     

    When did this start happening?

     

    Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
