Block-level sync for VeraCrypt not working post 83.4.152 update
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 di...
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 .

:grinning::laughing: If you thought developers are monitoring some thread on this forum you are wrong. Only PR-stuff (especially Customer service) observe what's going on here and react on support tickets. Julia20 already had mention the "solution" (or "fix") isn't final.

Just opposite! More reactions on single place, more chance to be considered. :wink:

I am totally with you Здравко .
We need a final solution with a final, public (=no beta) version + not only block-level sync limited to file-extensions but all files. And we need that soon. We have wasted and lost a lot of time.
Please but some pressure on this ticket Walter Julia20. We really want to see more progress here, this isn't funny anymore. Please be so nice to escalate that issue to some higher levels.

Hi all,
Are you still seeing problems with block level sync on the latest stable version (v86)? The fix for .hc and .tc extensions was a workaround for the specific issue of syncing files even when the modification timestamp has not changed. Block level sync should be working for all file types.

I see block-level syncing. The only issue I still see is that DB tray icon reports "Can't sync xxxx. File is locked" but it syncs it anyway. I suspect DB is detecting its own lock, since Truecrypt has no file handles open.
