Runtime error "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" on DropboxUpdate.exe

Every morning when I come into the office and log on to my computer to work, I get the following error. I usually lock my computer instead of shutting it down when I level office.
I installed Dropbox on a clean installation of Windows 11 (23H2) and updated it to the latest version (v215.4.7202).
What Microsoft runtime library version DropboxUpdate.exe using?
Can I manually install it again?

Runtime Error!
Program: C:Program Files(x86)\DropboxUpdate\DropboxUpdate.exe
R6030
CRT not initialized

    Thanks for letting us know about this error, Han_0125.

    Can you try to just reinstall the app from this link, to see if it helps?

    Let me know how it goes.
