Javascript error occurred in the main process on Mac OS 12.7.6

Hello, I am unable to open Dropbox because I keep getting this error message. Followed by a message that Dropbox quit unexpectedly. When I restart Dropbox, I get the same two errors. (see screenshots below).

I have a Mac, iOS 12.7.6 

I am using Dropbox app version 222.4.5042

Please help me resolve this issue! Thank you!

 

  • Hey CopperSoup - sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

    If you get this error even after quitting and relaunching the app and rebooting your computer, could you try a reinstall and let me know how it goes?

    Thanks!
