Excel Crashes on close - caused by DropBox
If you ever get this happening to you then suprisingly DROPBOX may be the cause.

- Jon Peltier - have you repro'd this? If so, can you tell me how to repro it here - we'll reach out to Dropbox and ask them to fix it.
Dan Battagin they do appear to be aware of this at DROPBOX
"Just a quick update. We have been able to reproduce this behaviour and have alerted our engineering team. They are working on identifying a fix. Unfortunately, there is no timeline for it yet. We'll definitely keep you posted!" - OTOBER 2015
Thanks Wyn. I was just hoping that we could add a bit more pressure :-)
Sounds like an issue that should be reported to Answers
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel- It's not Dropbox per se, it's the Dropbox Office Badge, which is intended to integrate Office with Dropbox, so people can collaborate on documents shared on Dropbox. If you disable the Badge, the problem goes away.
Hi Jon,
Yes, I do raise the fact that it is badges and how to turn them off in my article
