"You've hit the limit of invites for today" error on my very first share of the day
I use Dropbox for a single file transfer once per week. On the first attempt for this week I get an error message "You've hit the limit of invites for today. Try again later".

The latest W11 update (2026-05-13 KB5087051) has broken Dropbox and Windows Explorer
Since this update, dropbox triggers a restart crash loop on explorer.exe, presumably because it is trying to load context menu stuff: ``` Faulting application name: Explorer.EXE, version: 10.0.26100.8457, time stamp: 0xf263d9e9 Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.26100.8328, time stamp: 0x0022b8e0 Exception…
