Dropbox StaffTo clarify, are you seeing the NullReferenceException in addition to the "Can't find specified file" error, or are you no longer getting a NullReferenceException?
Either way, is that the entirety of the error/output you're getting? Please be sure to share the whole error/output and whatever details you can if not, as it's not quite clear here. For example, if your IDE shows which line something is failing on, please show that.
Anyway, it sounds like that "Can't find specified file" error is occurring when attempting to launch the authorization URL in the system browser, on the System.Diagnostics.Process.Start line, but is the authorization page actually launching in the browser or not? It's unclear why that would fail but it may depend on your particular environment. For example, it sounds similar to this issue.
That's the entirety of the error output unless this is also paired with the error output:
Exception thrown: „System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception” in System.Diagnostics.Process.dll
The nullreference shows because the dropbox client isn't getting assigned in the Run tast as it doesn't reach this point of the task. The authorization page doesn't open.
