Hi there Pelle Busch-Jensen - sorry to hear about this.
Can you please clarify your computer's exact OS, and the version and status of the Dropbox desktop app as shown in your menu bar?
A screenshot of the exact error you're getting would also help!

macOS 15.2 (24C101) (same issue on 14.7)
Dropbox version 217.3.4243. Up to date.
I can't really screenshot the exact error as it's more like a loop without a specific error message.

I see, thanks for the additional information Pelle Busch-Jensen
It seems that you're running a beta version of the app; have you tried using the latest, stable version from this page instead?
Just make sure you toggle off the 'early releases' from your account's settings first.

Yes I opted for the beta version hoping it would help the issue. It didn’t

Hope it’s OK if I jump in too, Pelle Busch-Jensen. To recap, you were previously on the stable version of the Dropbox app (not the beta one you’re currently using) and you were still experiencing the same behavior, correct?
You also mentioned in the beginning that the issue occurred after a recovery install of the Dropbox app; did you mean that you were normally using the Dropbox app on File Provider prior to that?
Other than that, I’d like you to go to the Sync tab of your app preferences as the next step and send me a screenshot of what you see there.
