Can not add new syn folder with the windows client app - window too big

degard · November 1, 2022, 9:05pm

Hi all,

after upgrading the nextcloud client app in windows (10 pro, version 10.0.19044 build 19044) I can not anymore create a sync new folder!

The window is so big that I can not scroll to the “create”-link or access it otherwise (see the screenshot).

I already deinstalled and reinstalled the client several times, but without any improvement.
I also checked the context menu and all button, but could nowhere find a way to select a folder from my hard disk to sync to my could storage.

Has anybody had the same problem or knows a solution?

Thanks!

Same problem here on desktop client 3.8.2 (Windows). It is a real problem to install the client on a laptop with a small screen

Does this help by chance?

Allow resizing the client window. In terms of Usability it would be much bett…er (faster, more transparent) to allow users resize the window for having the chance to see full file names of conflicting files. Currently, file names are truncated (at the end) and therefore often not identifiable by users. Further Note: truncating file names at the end is not helpful when trying to distinguish files in folders (with long paths). A better approach would be to remove parts of the filename from the middle of the file (as used by macOS in the Finder).
