Description

KBFS stuck loading files. Whether integrated in Finder/Explorer or not. OSX / Win10. I think its a cross platform issue, all my devices even phone cannot load any files I stored in kbfs. Maybe the storage got corrupted after a partial upload?

Visible error popups show up and it looks like keybase believes its offline.
`Unsynced data from /keybase/private/windsofrussia is not available while offline`

Logs also had a few errors related to keybased.sock and failing to connect to something.
`DialSocket -> ERROR: There were multiple errors: dial unix /Users/andrew/Library/Group Containers/keybase/Library/Caches/Keybase/keybased.sock: connect: socket operation on non-socket; dial unix /Users/andrew/Library/Caches/Keybase/keybased.sock: connect: socket operation on non-socket`

It is worth mentioning I saw something about root TFS block not found while snooping through the logs. `Partial sync at revision 719 done: Server: block does not exist`

my log id: `63913f49d4fd79bd4b5ff11c`

Research direction

Start with the provided log ID and the KBFS errors about keybased.sock, offline state, and the missing root TFS block. Reproduce or inspect the cross-platform loading failure on the mentioned OS X, Windows 10, and phone clients; done means stored KBFS files load normally without the offline or missing-block errors.
