I've just received some news that I'd like to share with you all here!
It appears that ESET has fixed the problem that was causing this error.
For anyone running ESET on their device, please update to the most recent version of ESET to update to the software.
Once you've done this, you should be fine to revert back to the latest stable version of the Dropbox desktop app. You can install this from here.
Otherwise, you can just allow the app to auto-update to the latest stable when a new version is released.
Let me know how it goes!

The beta version 112.3.254 definitely fixes the problem. Since I don't use many of the more advanced features of Dropbox, I hope this beta will be relatively stable for me.
The main production version is definitely seriously messed up.

Update 3: The beta version 112.3.254 works fine... So it was definately a problem of the latest version. Another solution could be offered by using the portable dropbox app using a previous version and selecting not to update it automatically.

It is incredible that they do not respond to this thread officially, so thank you all for the help. I also have eset nod32 + win10 updated, does someone without eset antivirus also have this problem?

Try the beta mentioned here. Worked for me.
