I solved the problem.I performed a thorough uninstallation, deleting files and folders one by one, being very meticulous. Despite having uninstalled it and installed the current version, I discovered some remnants of the beta version.

Hey Edouardd, would you mind giving us some more info on your issue?
Are you getting some kind of error message?

The problem we are talking about does not make the app crash, it makes the finder cloud status icons stop working.

Hi HAK3, you mentioned that you've reported this to our Support team. Can I ask if you have a ticket number reference, that I can have a look at?
Also, Edouardd, feel free to let me know the app's version, and syncing status. Thank you both!
