    Hello,

    Exactly the same thing is happening to me right now. Are there any updates on this thread, has any solution been found to fix this issue? 

    Edit: I have just fixed the issue by downloading a new Dropbox Installer and running it without removing the old Dropbox installation, this fixed it and Dropbox is now launching without errors.
