Error message 0xc000007b upon installation.

I have already tested the 179 version yesterday ==> same error

This is the last version which works;

Dropbox 174.4.5852 Offline Installer.x64

Just one last thing then, TAnon, have you tried the more advanced reinstall of the app?

You are my hero!!  This worked.  I can't thank you enough, you've saved my sanity!!

Fantastic news SBering!

If you need anything else, just give us a shout. We'll put our capes on, and come to the rescue! 😉

TAnon & SBering thanks for alerting us to this issue. We did make some changes to the security settings for our installers as part of Version 175 which seem to be causing issues with the security settings on your machines. The engineering team is currently looking into a fix, but there is a workaround you can try if you'd like to be able to install the latest version of Dropbox:

- From the Start menu, search for and open "Windows Security"

- Select App & Browser Control

- Select Exploit Protection Settings

- Reset "Force Randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR) back to the "Default (Off)" setting

- Reboot and try installing again

Here's a Capture showing the process: https://capture.dropbox.com/mWbJjWFzpXyafdZF

I'll update this thread once we have a long term fix for the issue and Mandatory ASLR can be turned back on

My dropbox on Win 11 somehow stopped auto updating. It's still 174.3.5762. I have another Win 10 PC and it's updated all right. I even tried to manually update but got error. How can I fix it?

Which was?

First of all disable your antivirus software, sometimes Antivirus software can interfere with Dropbox updates if it fails, you can uninstall and reinstall Dropbox. I think these steps must work

Can't finish install and get an error message 0xc000007b.
