Notification: "Repair Outlook"

I have 5 computers all of which run Windows 11. I've had frequent trouble syncing my Word File which has my calendars and to-dos.   Now my HP laptop has a notification:  "Repair Outlook": "This will clear local settings and delete any unsaved Outlook data.  Do you want to continue?".

Should I click "Yes" or "No"???

    That doesn't sound like a message from Dropbox, or related to Dropbox. Can you reply with a screenshot showing the message?

    Hi Dove-1897, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    Could you clarify how this notification is related to Dropbox, aside from the syncing issues you have mentioned?

    If you quit the Dropbox desktop application entirely, do you still get this error message?

    This will help me to assist further!
