Hi pcp812, could you let me know the information I requested in my previous post to see what is occurring on your end?

My desktop is running MacOS 12.7.4 and Dropbox 197.4.7629. However, this problem also occurs on my laptop, which is on an older version of MacOS (High Sierra, not sure of the actual version number).

Hey pcp812 - sorry to jump in here, but do you happen to be running any security apps or programs on your computer that might be causing issues?
Have you tried quitting the desktop app and relaunching it after rebooting your computer by the way?

Not a one.
Have you tried quitting the desktop app and relaunching it after rebooting your computer by the way?Yes, and as I said this is just a temporary fix. The next time I restart my computer, the problem crops up again. And the temporary fix doesn't always work.
