CloudF files won't open on Mac

Troubleshooting
1

Used oDrive few months back but removed it. Now giving it another shot and reinstalled the app. However, when I double click on a .cloudf file the “Unknown file prompt” comes up. I’ve chose oDrive as the application and selected “Always use this application”.

Now when I double click on a cloudf file, nothing happens.

The strange thing is when I right click on the file, and hover over open with, I get 2 oDrive options (1.0 and 0.0.0). When I select 1.0, it works, but 0.0.0 being the default does not.

  • Is there a way to swap the defaults here?
  • Should I be opening in something different?

I’ve tried re-installing (Removed all .odrive folders in home, library, and ~library) to no avail.

Thanks

Hi @alek.mlynek,
Glad to hear you are trying odrive again. Let’s start by getting open usable.

If you right-click on a .cloud file, choose “Get Info”, and then go to the “Open with” section, can you choose odrive (1.0) and select “Change All”? You would also want to do this with a .cloudf file.

Feel silly for not thinking of using “Get Info”. Works great, thank you!
