Hello,
I am running Windows 10 Home 20H2 19042.985. I kept receiving a message that Dropbox needed to be updated. So, finally I tried it. It would download and run and close right away. I tried all sorts of things to try and get it installed. I was able to start the install when I booted in Safe mode with Networking turned on.
I tried both the installer that downloads the image, and the one that indicates it is a full install with no network connection required (which is false, it would not run unless I was connected to the internet.
I have finally goto the point where the installer does download things and then runs. But then the following error comes up:
When OK is clicked I get the following:
I have the latest version of Chrome, which is my default browser. If you notice the above image it is Windows Explorer that opens up. I updated Edge to the latest version, FireFox, etc. Nothing works.
I have read a lot of updates in the community with people who have gotten the same errors. I have tried many of them with no success. Is there a really true offline installer that needs no internet connect? Then once I get it installed I could boot out of safe mode and make the connection to my Dropbox account?
Or, is there a way to correct the error? Right now the only way I can access Dropbox is via the Web browser.
Any help you can give so that I can get this installed will be appreciated.
