Everything was working fine until I installed the official E2EE application. All I did was adding an encrypted folder and add about 10 files into it.

I could finally get e2ee working but it was a pain. I’ve found out many issues. Like @jtr mentioned VFS doesn’t work with E2EE. You can create the empty folders, encrypt them but as soon as you’ll be adding files into them they will crash and corrupt your sync database. I confirm that creating…
