The Dropbox icon is missing and reinstalling didn't help much.
I am a very casual DB user, so user error is likely here. That said...
I am having a number of issues with DB so I started with a fresh uninstall/reinstall of DB, as that seemed to be the common solution to the 'no DB icon' problem (I did not have an Icon on my Windows 11 desktop). The install went fine as best as I can tell and I had a DB icon for about 30 seconds. Now it is gone again (and it is not a hidden icon). What is my next step? Thanks.

Hey DaveLeeNC, let's jump right into this!
When did you first notice this behavior? Also, is the app installed on the device with admin privileges?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
