You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Dropbox stopped launching from Windows 11 start menu or taskbar
Stopped working today (possibly after windows update yesterday?). Will launch from notification area but not the others. Trien reinstalling - no effect. Any ideas or anyone else seeing this beha...
So Dropbox support sorted it out. It was a beta version that had installed (I don't think I ever asked for beta but it was turned on in preferences). reinstalled stable version and all working 😊
Just realised that its the same on my work PC running windows 10. Maybe a central Dropbox issue?
Also, I have Dropbox plus so I think I should have access to support via email or chat but I'm not getting those options to raise a ticket !

Hi Ian_A6, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
You should be able to access the support page from your browser? What error do you get when logged in?
This will help me to assist further!
Hi Jay, doesn't appear to be any issue with windows firewall and I don't have any VPN or proxy software etc.
I can launch Dropbox form here
but not from the icom on my taskbar or from the start menu. That support page link is allowing me to reach chat so I'll try that. Thanks
