Context menu does not show / Sync does not work

Hi @jpsousa,
Thanks for the diagnostic. Unfortunately it looks like the local database is damaged. This means we’ll need to reinstall, but we’ll be able to set everything back up so that you do not need to resync your data.

To do this, perform the following steps:

  1. Uninstall odrive using the instructions from How do I uninstall odrive? . Uninstall will rename the current odrive folder, as a backup, so that you do not lose any data. More on that below in Step 3.
  2. Install odrive again and then log in as the same user as before (very important). It looks like you use Google to login.
  3. When you uninstall odrive it will rename the current default odrive folder to a backup name. You will find this folder in your user home directory named odrive_[current date and time] .
  4. Exit odrive after you have logged in and verified it is now working as expected.
  5. Rename the new default odrive folder to odrive-bak
  6. Rename the backup folder that the uninstall created ( the odrive_[current date and time] folder mentioned above in step 3.) to just odrive.
  7. Start odrive again

After you swap the odrive folder with your backup folder, odrive will see the new content and process it. It will determine if files are already synced and not re-upload or re-download anything. If you have lots of content it could take a while for odrive to finish processing, but once it has you should then be able to proceed as normal with everything as it was before.

Please let me know if you have any question on the above steps.
