Same here.

Attempts to update dropbox online or offline resulted in the Windows error 0x80004002.

Uninstalled Dropbox, restarted Windows, re-installed Dropbox from scratch. Restart windows. Seems OK so far. Best of luck.

        upon uninstalling and re-installing, do you have issues with syncing local files and folders? I don't want to jeopardize my data
