Hey discofuel! Welcome back to our Community. 

Since you mention you’re running this Dropbox app version 222.4.5042, it’s quite possible that this is about updating to the latest app version instead (232.4.5926). 

Can you go to this page and try to update your desktop app from there? 

Let me know if the notification re-appears after that.
