Description

The first time this happened(few weeks ago) it lasted like 1 day and then it somehow fixed itself. It happened again today. I uninstalled Keybase and removed its files in %APPDATA%, reinstalled and made a new device. The issue still remains. Any help would be appreciated.

**Received images:**

The upload progress flickers from beginning to end. While that's 'uploading' i can't send any messages they fail to send.
**Embeds:**

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the desktop failures for received and sent images, downloads, and embeds, then inspect the client behavior and available logs; the work is done when all three functions work and messages send normally.
