Thanks for the additional info here, dmitriy1980.

 

It looks like you're on the beta version of the Dropbox app, so in this case, let's try to install the stable one, to see if that helps.

 

To do so, go to this page and disable the "early releases" option.

 

Afterwards, reinstall the Dropbox app and let us know how it goes.

    I will check for the next couple of days but this is an on-going issue for months if not years.

      It appears that I continue to get the same issue reported in the Event Viewer logs.
