title: May I damage software by killing the process?
body: <p>Here is my situation: I have an authenticated proxy at work. I use proxyswitcher.net to change/remove the proxy accordingly to the network identification. Also, I made a powershell script that kills dropbox, changes de config file to the one with/without manual proxy configuration and I restart it.</p>
  
  <p>From what I read, the risks of doing this is that some file may be corrupted while dropbox is writing it. I don´t think this is a problem as the script runs at the moment that the network is identified. Also, dropbox is very good at handling this type of errors. </p>
  
  <p>But, is there a better way or other risks I´m not aware of it?</p>
