The autoupdate for macOS is failing to download every time and continuously retrying.

 

Trying to download and install via the installer app continuosly fails and retries - presumably as it downloads the same corrupt file.

 

The DMG for the offline installer is also corrupt and not recognised by the OS nor by Disk Utility.

 

This is for Dropbox 142.4.4197.dmg. 

 

 

I have tried downloading on several Macs using different browsers and it never produces a valid download.

 

I would suggest the DMG file is corrupt?

Use a download manager and copy the address of the linked file from the download itself, not the link as given here in the first post. That might help overcome an unstable connection and result in a correct .dmg file
