Dropbox S is activated when Valorant is active

When I lunch Valorant or during the game Dropbox mode S the type already installed in Win10 appeared in task manager. I try to understand which situation made this. Valorant's (useless) support give me a very worst solution. I just try here to understand what kind of call Valorant make to activate Dropbox in background.

    That sounds like something that only Valorant Support would be able to explain. Dropbox isn't going to have any insight into what other applications are doing.

      I put the term useless because no one gave me an answer (even for other problem look like a Valorant server's issue). Only a very lame solution (I don't even know if my message arrived to the programmer area). My idea was if I know how dropbox was called I can understand how Valorant make that call and wrote a message for that support to make a patch. If we put a very wrong/bad way must be a privacy issue from Riot.

        Hi dodisnake, could you clarify the exact behavior as it happens step-by-step?

         

        Does it occur the moment you launch Valorant, or after the menu or match begins? What exactly appears on screen?

         

        Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!
