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 JefACU1, welcome to our Community!
Do you face the same problem as the OP here?
If so, when did this start happening and when did you first notice that the issue started?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
- JefACU13 months agoExplorer | Level 3The OP Is my son who is posting on my behalf. He was posting about my problem with Dropbox as he does not have the same problem.
I have had this problem for a few months. When I reboot, I have no Dropbox on my computer and I need to reinstall it. The docs are available through Windows. Explorer but do not update dropbox.- Jay3 months agoDropbox Staff
Hi JefACU1, is this a normal personal machine, or is this a company-managed device?
Do you have any programs that could automatically uninstall the Dropbox desktop application each time you reboot?
- JefACU13 months agoExplorer | Level 3This is my personal PC and is not a company-managed device. There are NO programs that can automatically uninstall the Dropbox desktop application each time you reboot.
