Not so sure, got a desktop and two laptops (all running Ubuntu 19.04) - they all have the same issue - also no other menu dropdown has done or does this? So maybe something in Gnome not getting called correctly, very strange response though as if I click multiple times, randomly it will show and stay and be fully functional, then if I close the dropdown I get the same thing happening again...
ah ok I thought you might be on a windows machine, but with that said I find many times in tech support some applications expect certain dependancies for the OS or drivers to have and if the OS doesnt have those dependancies, they malfunction. I would still check for OS updates first, then video driver and last but not least mouse driver. If that doesnt work, then id suggest contacting DropBox support, maybe they have a fixed version you could download, also I wonder if there is a dropbox download in the ubuntu store, maybe you might get some luck there.
good luck
Cheers - I'll dig around, had the issue for nearly a year now. Hopefully the latest 19.10 fixes it
layolayo1, This problem is still issue. As you already mentioned "no other menu dropdown has done or does this"! I can confirm that happens for long time (started might be a year ago). The issue is signaled. Would be fine to be solved finally. Even more, the issue isn't restricted to "Gnome" only, it's Dropbox application related definitely!
Lets hope... :thinking:
PS: Would be fine every user, reading this and experiencing the above issue, post a single line below, so at all could be more remarkable and focus Dropbox developers attention. :wink::8ball:
I have been getting the same error for the past few updates. I am running the current version 83.4.152 on Arch Linux. After doing the suggested uninstall - reinstall Dropbox ran normanlly for a few days. Now it has regressed back to starting, looking for changes, and then trying to update Drpbox where it hangs until I quit.
