Hi Frugalfart, which device and platform do you use in order to update the database files? 

 

Have you made sure all the devices are up-to-date? Feel free to also take a look here.

Sometimes I update it from my Windows 11 Pro and sometimes from my Android ver 13

    And is the behavior the same, no matter the one you use Frugalfart?

     

    When did this start happening?

      Yes, same behavior either way. I'm guessing it started about 2 months ago but I can't be sure as I accidentally figured out I had an issue when I knew some of my stuff wasn't being updated. I took my time about trying to fix it because I figured I had too many devices and that it would be an easy fix and at that time I would just resync my database. Once I figured out I didn't have too many devices I took to troubleshooting what was going on.

        Hi Frugalfart, is it only occurring with the Keepass file? Are you experiencing sync issues with other files on your account?
