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.
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!!
I am having the same issues, Dropbox (Business) started crashing right after a recent Windows 10 update KB4503286 & KB4480730 and none of thr suggsted helpdesk fixes are working. Anyone have any ideas?

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.
The support contacted me and and suggested to deinstall and install it again - oh wonder of course i didn't thought on that #facepalm, but i did it and for my working pc it worked out and the syncinc started over.
- I deinstalled with iobit uninstaller to make sure to get also the regedit entries and
- deleted the Dropbox folder manually
- Installed it again (fresh download from your space)
For my PC at home it didn't worked like this, for some strange reason,
- i had to uninstall it (iobit uninstaller)
- delete the Dropbox folder manually,
- download it again (logged in)
- When the Window pops up with only online blabla i had to hit the X to quit the setup but it was already fine, because for some strange reasons it wanted the standard path (user/Dropbox) and when you download it as logged in you don't have to enter the login credentials and IT STARTED SYNCING -sidenode, after that i was able to modfiy the path to my location but not in the first place.
