MacOS Monterey 12.5 won't install Dropbox?

New macbook arrived.. but I can't seem to install dropbox locally. (Have web access) but wanted to add folder to my finder (as before) so that I have local access to all of my files. 

The installer did download - but didn't start. 

Search for dropbox - and nothing. 

Yet when I go to download it again... it says "looks like you've already installed dropbox" and asks me to open the app. 

 

Click open the App and nothing happens. 

 

Searching for Dropbox - gives me no files. 

 

Is it not supported on 12.5 yet? Is there a way to install on this version ? 

 

Thanks in advance,
