Apps and Installations
Have a question about a Dropbox app or installation? Reach out to the Dropbox Community and get solutions, help, and advice from members.
I recently started having a problem with Excel where frequent screen refresh (about every 4 seconds) was interfering with work. The same thing was happening in Word.
After many hours of troubleshooting, an online community suggested Dropbox as the cuprit. I uninstalled Dropbox and the probem was cured. I reinstalled it and the problem returned.
Windows 7, Office 2007
Thanks for any advice

Hi @lensilva and all,
Thanks for highlighting this.
We've investigated here and it looks like we have a slight bug at our end. I'll update here once the fix is live in a beta or stable version and let you all know what the version number is.
Thanks again all for highlighting us. In the mean time, as a work around, you can indeed disable the Dropbox badge which should resolve this.
Many thanks and happy Dropboxing!
Never show badge worked for me! Very Frustrating to say the least!
Thanks gregvydra
