Dropbox uninstalls every time I restart my computer

Everytime I restart my computer dropbox uninstalls itself and I have to reinstall it, the files still persist but the software is gone so no syncing is done.

Hi there @mrmrmr - thanks for bringing this to our attention.


Can you please clarify your computer's OS version, and the version of the Dropbox app you're using?

 

Do you happen to be running any security software on your computer by the way?

 

Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
