Hi there..... I appear to have a similar problem... Dropbox keeps closing. Happened out of the blue.... It was working fine and when I looked 30 mins later it had closed. I had not installed anything or done anything different other than scan some pages to my dropbox folder which I had done hundreds of times before. Reinstalled Dropbox from the website........ It opens as normal and then within a minute just closes. Tried doing this a few times. Once it got all the way through indexing (45,000 files)and then a few moments later again just closed. Point at which it closes appears to be random. I am using MacOS Ventura 13.4

 

Help please.....
