Hey dmitriy1980, thanks for flagging this with us.
Is this error affecting your computer's performance in any way or do you notice this under specific circumstances?
Could you clarify your computer's exact OS version and the version and status of the desktop app as well?
If you could also send us a screenshot of the error as well, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!

Thanks for the additional info here, dmitriy1980.
It looks like you're on the beta version of the Dropbox app, so in this case, let's try to install the stable one, to see if that helps.
To do so, go to this page and disable the "early releases" option.
Afterwards, reinstall the Dropbox app and let us know how it goes.

I will check for the next couple of days but this is an on-going issue for months if not years.

It appears that I continue to get the same issue reported in the Event Viewer logs.

I see, thanks for the update, dmitriy1980.
If closing and restarting the app or restarting your computer doesn't help either, can you try a more advanced reinstall of the app, to see if that helps?

I followed the instructions you provided 3 weeks ago and it was good... until today. I saw entries in the Event Viewer today once again.
I also checked, I'm on version 182.4.6427.0.
