2023-06-17|Dropbox (macOS) Not Launching, Not in menubar
To whom it may concern
Me, too!
My MacBook Air is running macOS (Ventura 13.4 (22F66)). I noticed that Dropbox icon on the menubar had quietly disappeared with no error message, so I panicked and restarted the Mac again and again. No luck.
I double-clicked /Macintosh HD/Applications/Dropbox.app (Version 178.2.762), but it did not do anything at all after many tries.
I then went to Dropbox website and obtained DropboxInstaller.dmg. I double-clicked it, and it started Dropbox with the icon in menubar! I happily waited 1/2 hour for 100 000+ files to sync. When syncing was done, everything looked fine with BLUE dot on files as usual. However, Dropbox icon quietly disappeared after several minutes, just like before.
The current location of my Dropbox folder is ~/Dropbox/. There is no CloudStorage in my ~/Library/ folder.
I am desperate, so PLEASE HELP!
Thank you very much for your attention.

The crisis was averted after I changed the setting for "Early releases" because the problem stemmed from my system downloading an early version.
