Code:
taskkill  /F /IM dropbox.exe /T
which killed dropbox. After calibre was close, the file ran dropbox.exe.
And if there is a problem with the library on Dropbox, you could get this problem synced back to your active library. Until there is just a one-way sync, there is no way you should ever let your cloud software near your active calibre libraries.
