How to turn off continuous requests to update app?
How do you stop the requests. I have clicked the update tab several times but the requests keep coming.

Hey @Joel Poston Photography, thanks for the update!
I sounds like the Dropbox desktop application is trying to update, and needs these permissions to do so, but it’s possible that another app or service is preventing the update.
Are you running any apps that could interact with the Dropbox folder in some way, that could affect the app?

Overnight last night, I closed all programs with only email still running and I mute my speakers. Next morning as I come into my office I see 8 or 9 of those badges across the bottom of my screen all for dropbox updates. I click on update and nothing happens. I've tried opening dropbox as admin and it wont update. I go to the settings and I don't see anything update there either.
