I had Dropbox Sync enabled and working.
I wanted to try WIFI sync, therefor I had to un-link Dropbox Sync.

Now whenever I try to link Dropbox on Desktop I get the following error

When I try to sync with Dropbox I get redirected to my browser.
I press Allow and Open Accordance.

This is then followed by the error from the first image.

 

When I did this the first time it worked without problems.
Un-linking and linking works on my IOS app!
So what have I tried.
I cleaned my Dropbox from the Apps> Accordance folder.
When I try to sync, Dropbox tells me it created a new Apps folder.
So clicking allow and opening Accordance does initiate a action within Dropbox.
So the issue seems with Accordance Desktop.

I then made a backup from my accordance files and restarted Accordance so it created a new Accordance Files folder.
Now all my preferences are gone including all my notes and tools. I tried to sync it gives me the same error.

Since It works on IOS, And Dropbox manages to create new Apps folder it seems like the issue is with Accordance.
What are other things I can try without re-installing Accordance?

I ran the Accordance Cleanup utility within the installation folder on windows.
This resolved the issue. It can now link again.
