Super User IIIf it works on all other machines but not yours there is something on your machine that is doing this. Note that it is not Dropbox - Dropbox cannot do it, there is a process or something on your device which is causing the issue. You need to work out whats different between yours and the rest
I'm sorry but it is not like you say because the temporary file are created in dropbox and from dropbox and not in my pc, so it is impossibile what you say, there is a problem in dropbox, because if the problem was the pc, the temporary files would be created in my pc.

Dropbox doesn't (and can't) create files on its own. If there are temporary files being created, then they're from an application on your computer or on the computer of another member of the folder. Dropbox is simply not capable of creating files like that.
Look at the version history for one of the files. It will show you where it originated from.

You are missing how Dropbox works.
Dropbox is a folder, on your PC, like every single other one. So, what I said was right - the files are on your PC and are being made by an application on your PC which is then being sync'd.
