Hi there Seneca_83 - sorry to hear about your syncing issue.
Could you let us know the version and status of the Dropbox desktop app as shown in your system tray at the moment or is it still crashing?
Also, how many files are you syncing on your computer?
Let us know more and we'll take it from there, Matt.

209.4.3661 is my version
I use Dropbox everyday. Now it´s fine since I moved the whole box to an external SSD which seems/has to be faster than the internal HDD.
but it seems it was 1 or 2 4k video files that crashed the whole dropbox and almost my whole PC (because of WIndows Explorer which didnt work at all after 2-3min)
-> what to do next time???

Sure thing, Matt. I've passed it on to the team internally and you can let us know if you have anything else to add.

If you notice this happen again in the future, you can start by rebooting your computer and quitting and relaunching the app, Matt.
Should the issue persist afterwards, you can reach out to our support team directly or here, on our Community.

It always tries to sync that "issue" file and I can´t delete this sync (even if i delete the file to sync).
