Has anyone seen this issue, and if so, how did you fix it?

Can you provide a screenshot? Be sure to mask any private information.

So when I click on the icon in the tray the window looks fine:

But as soon as the cursor goes over the window it changes to this:

DBM4_1-1726540066033.png

And some functions become inoperable.

Hey @DBM4 - thanks for the screenshots!

 

Have you tried rebooting your computer, quitting and relaunching the app, or even re-installing it, since you first noticed this?

I have rebooted numerous times since this began, have quit and relaunched as well.  Before I uninstalled and reinstalled Dropbox I wanted to bring this problem to the community to see if there was a less invasive way to address this problem.

Hey @DBM4, we would definitely suggest uninstalling the app, restarting the computer and then reinstalling it, since restarting the device didn't help.

 

Let us know how it goes!

Could you provide a link to installation instructions?

As I want to this correctly as your website says:

 

Delete my Dropbox
If you delete your account, your data will be gone forever.

That's if you delete your account. That has nothing to do with uninstalling the software.

Then just install from here.
