macOS Open dialog locks up app after installing Dropbox client

After installing Dropbox client on macOS, anytime any app attempts to open the macOS Open File dialog, the app locks up.  This is any application with the macOS open dialog.  As soon as I trash Dropbox from Applications, everything works again.

 

I believe this has to do with migrating this user account from another Mac, as other user accounts on this computer do not have this issue.

 

I've trashed the .dropbox folder in my home dir and Dropbox dir at ~/Library/Application Support, still have the same issue after re-installing.

 

macOS 15.1
