It seems as if the Dropbox service may be trying to start too soon as, after the initial error, Windows seems to be able to correct the problem and everything works correctly. This is a very recent happening and I cannot relate the change to any system changes. Is there anything I can do to stop the error - if I didn't regularly check the Event Viewer I would be none the wiser so perhaps I'm being too sensitive.
Thanks.
I just read through ten pages of this thread in the hope of a resolution. FWIW, I'm experiencing the same issue (Windows 10 Pro, Dropbox Pro).
Hi Mark,
Unfortunately the resolution is out of the user's hands but we are told that the Dropbox development team are working to find a solution. Fortunately, at least formost of us, we are still able to use Dropbox as normal.
Hi all,
received Dropbox 16.4.29 today - the error still persists...
Greetings
