I know there is already a thread covering this error - it is marked solved, so I can't comment - none of the solutions work for me.
Using Windows 8.1 - problem has appeared in the last few weeks.
every 10 minutes a very distracting User Account Control message box starts flashing. The only way to get rid of it is to click through the UAC black screen every 10 minutes.
I have tried uninstalling Dropbox.
It then becomes inpossible to reinstall Dropbox due to an error.
Then the only way I can reinstall is in safe mode.
When I reinstall the problem persists.
The only way I can stop the distraction is by turning dropbox off,
which is not a solution.
I have tried turning my firewall off - no change.
I have tried disabling / enabling the dropbox update service
I don't want to turn UAC off.
Are there any new solutions to this problem?
thanks in advance for any help
