Thank you very much; it works perfectly; as suggested somewhere, I also went to Session and Startup > Application Autostart and add the following startup item :
bash -c 'export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="" && dropbox start' after turning off the tick box in dropbox options “start dropbox at the startup” . Now the icon appears when turning on the computer, as previously.
