Thanks for using Dropbox! The desktop client is regularly updated with many improvements and fixes. Download Windows Standard Installer Offline Installer Mac OS X Standard Installer Offline Installer Linux x86_64 Offline Installer x86 OfflineInstaller Auto-updates: In progress

Please could you share the release notes?

Have been trying to fix this issue now for the past two days .. have followed the suggested troubleshooting ... it's not working! Not even using the Stable build.I do NOT want to use the app from the Microsoft store - I tried that and it's incomplete syncing and is buggy! I prefer a stable platform and its NOT via Microsoft Store ... I have been a paid user for many years and I depend on Dropbox for my business and personal needs. There HAS to be a better solution!

Followed the fix instructions ... stopped crashing BUT none of my files in the past week that I worked on and need for work have synced to the cloud and to other linked devices! I just checked ONLINE to see if the changes were even available online after I followed the instructions to fix the crashing issue ... and NO they are not!! AND I am away for work till the first of next week and those were files that I needed .... this is the FIRST time since I started using Dropbox (2009) and even as a paid member that this has happened. PLEASE find a solution!!

MarkK blackowl JG2019 CaseyJDesigns Thanks for the bug reports, and sorry for the disruption. This has been fixed on 75.3.133 as of this morning, which you can download here: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Desktop-client-builds/Beta-Build-75-3-133/m-p/350563#M5311 If you upgraded to 75.3.133 before 11am PDT this morning, you may need to start Dropbox twice to get the updated setting. The fix will go out to stable later this week, and users will be auto-updated to it.

Peter H.87 Sorry for the wait! Release notes are a bit of a manual process right now, so sometimes they fall through the cracks. v74 release notes: Dropbox Business users in teams that have opted into Early Access can now create Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides directly from Dropbox. The ESC button now closes the desktop tray. Added back warnings for deletions and moves that were briefly missing for some users.

Kept getting the Dropbox has crashed error .. try restarting (or close) ... downloaded the new build so fingers crossed it works! I deleted the shortcut off my desktop from the previous install .. so hopefully between the two that fixes it!
Long term Dropbox user! Love it! And it has saved my ass on numerous occasions!! It is actually more stable than my hard drive!

I am experiencing the same issue as blackowl and CaseyJDesigns. Dropbox quits unexpectedly, restarts, then quits again, in a loop. Any updates to when this issue might be fixed? I have a support ticket in as well, waiting to see what they say.

MarkK, CaseyJDesigns, and blackowl - It looks like the latest beta build may have fixed the issue I was having - Dropbox quitting, restarting, then quitting again, in a loop. I noticed during that time that there was a spike in cpu usage in Adobe Acrobat at the same time files were being transferred in and out of Dropbox. Before the latest beta build, I was able to settle Dropbox down by installing Foxit Reader and making it the default viewer for pdfs. But I have since uninstalled Foxit after installing the latest beta build, 75.3.133.
