Windows Defender problem is preventing the Dropbox app from running
I have a problem with the app's Dropbox files on desktop
(The iPhone and the website work fine).
I received this message:
Check your internet connection. microsoft defender smartscreen is not accessible and cannot help you decide if the Dropbox application is allowed to run
so I canceled all the protections, i.e. - Enable the Windows Defender reputation based protection, but the problem was solved for a few days and then ruternd
desktop.

Thanks for the update, it might be worth continuing with the email support for them to investigate this in more detail on their end.
