Greetings all,

After DB auto-updated to 83.4.152, I noticed that the block-level syncing doesn't seem to be detecting changes anymore for my VeraCrypt container.

Before the update, everytime I dismount my VC encrypted container, DB will index the file and compare the deltas at the block-level -- syncing the block-level changes.  However, after the 152 update, I've noticed that even with lots of changes in the VC container, after I dismount, DB detects no changes to the encrypted file.  I end up having a bunch of conflicts when trying to sync between machines via the \"rename the file and rename it back\" approach.

Could someone share resolution or your similar experiences if you're also using encrypted containers with DB?

Thanks,

BPH

Hello people, 

I am using Veracrypt on my files that are also shared with Dropbox. I have used Veracrypt for almost half an year and everything was absolutely fine until 1 month ago when Dropbox is not synchronising the files. 

I tried everything described in the help section, but it did not resolve my problem.

I unliked computer 1, then linked it again. Checked the uploaded files from the Dropbox web and they were the newest version. I  unlinked my Dropbox account from my Computer 2, deleted all files from my Dropbox folder, linked again to my account and even then the files that it dowloaded were the old ones. I don't even know how the old one are comming from.

Does anyone knows what could be the problem?

Hi all, we've brought this to our team and wanted to follow up.

While we've presented a workaround: either by turning off the \"preserve file modification timestamps\" setting in the application or naming the file with a \".tc\" or \".hc\" extension, we want to be transparent about our current priorities and unfortunately, this means that we won't be able to delve deeply into this in the near future.

We're still tracking these reports, and will make sure to inform you right away of any changes.

Thanks for understanding .

Hello there JhonyWalker - thanks for the report!

As your inquiry echoes the OP's description and some similar reports we had from other users, I moved your post under this thread to keep things neat around our Community. 

As John L.2  mentioned above, our team is looking into this matter while we speak while, in the meantime, you can try disabling the \"Preserve modification timestamp\" in  VeraCrypt and/or TrueCrypt's preferences or (quoting John here) \"touching\" the files to force them to sync up.

Thanks for your patience while we look into this matter and let us know if you come up with any additional questions.

Hey Guys,

for those who have still problems. If your changes to a file or a container are done, just try to pause the sync in dropbox. Wait some seconds and then resume.

If I do so, dropbox recognises a change and is syncing. And it is using block level sync.

Just a work around. I will try to automate this for my needs.

Maybe it helps.
