    Hello! 

    I have reformatted my laptop and reinstalled Dropbox. The problem was connected to the device. Thank you again for your support!

Hi soloelsie, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Could you try to reinstall the Dropbox desktop application, without uninstalling it first, by using this link.

 

Keep me updated with any progress!
