Description

There are errors when I try to see shared files of my team and I can not see them. It happens with every client of my devices.
The errors are two:
ERROR CODE 2704 - RPC_Error: BLOCK_NONEXISTENT in method keybase.1.SimpleFS.simpleFSWait
ERROR CODE 2704 - RPC_Error: BLOCK_NONEXISTENT in method keybase.1.SimpleFS.simpleFSStat
If I try to see files with Explorer (on Windows) in the KBFS the folder appears empty.
Until yesterday morning I could see and edit files in that folder.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing team files through KBFS in Windows Explorer and inspect the keybase.1.SimpleFS.simpleFSWait and simpleFSStat error paths for RPC_Error 2704 and BLOCK_NONEXISTENT. Done means the shared folder contents are visible again and both errors no longer occur across the affected clients.
