The Dropbox desktop app doesn't install correctly on Sequoia 15.5

I have just bought a new Mac Book Air and running Sequoia 15.5. I have used dropbox since it started, and never had an issue. However I simply cannot get Dropbox to install properly in Sequoia 15.5. ...

I have tried to get the error message repeated, but no luck. Trying to reinstall using the offline dmg file makes no difference. I am hearing from other 15.5 users the same issue, the app simply doesn't run after the initial install and file download. I have the dropbox folders installed and sync'ed, but the app isn't running, there is no sync running, and I can't access dropbox setting. This a real bug, and seemingly not a clash with another app. If I can't rectify this, I am forced to move to another storage app, I simply cannot afford to be offline like this for days with no way to rectifying. I just don't understand how a serious bug like this doesnt get picked up in UAT ?
