Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library error on dropboxupdate.exe, R6030 CRT not initialized
Hi,
I got this error message today, after login into my computer. How can I solve it?
I use Windows 10 LTSC.
Thanks,
Feriman
Download didn't work, just keeps failing.
Your website said to download the FULL version, that failed as well.
Then your website said "Problems downloading?Try again"
That keeps failing too "Download Dropbox failed trying again in x seconds but just keeps on round in circles

Dropbox StaffHi HemiBob, could you try using a different browser to download the file?
Do you have any proxy, VPN, firewall, security software, or even ISP/router settings that could be restricting traffic to the following Dropbox domains?
I'm getting the same error now and then, typically on waking from sleep. I'm using no third-party tools that would affect it.
The error message isn't some user error or temporary issue - it's a significant bug in the coding of dropboxupdater around the use of static vs dynamic linking. You need to inform your developers of the issue, rather than just telling users to restart.

Thanks for letting us know, gh221.
The proper team is aware and currently investigating this issue.
Once we have more info, we'll update you as well.
Any update on this? I see this on all new computers with Windows 11 64bit Build 22H2 when a user has no admin rights. This does not appear to be an issue if they have admin rights. Never a problem until recently. Can we stop the message somehow?
