Can't remove the desktop app from Mac

See image. Does anyone have a solution? 

 

 

Note: It looks like this even if I've closed the app

    Hi there bajskorv - sorry to hear you're having issues with this. 

     

    Could you open your computer's Activity Monitor (normally located under Applications > Utilities) and check for any processes that are associated with Dropbox?

     

    If you see any, you can try removing them and then try uninstalling the app normally. 

     

    Let me know of any updates!
