Hi, since a few days Dropbox notifies me with the screen below. Then I start this update, everything seems fine but somehow Dropbox unpacking stops at 97%. Then, things finish without warning/error and I've got two icons in the topbar. Everything works, I can access my Dropbox folder via Nautilus, etc. Next boot I'm confronted with this upgrade again? Any help, thx, Zach

What happens if you install the package suggested in your first picture?
Or run in a terminal
sudo apt install - f

Dropbox upgrade pop-up keeps showing every reboot?

Thx, Zach

Did you install dropbox via the repos or their website?

Hi westie457,
Tried both, still no luck. Dropbox works fine, but every reboot I still get the upgrade popup again. Thx, Zach

Hi, performed a so called advanced reinstall: https://www.dropbox.com/help/desktop-web/advanced-reinstall.
Annoying popup at boot gone.
Thx, Zach
