Description
I am a Windows Keybase user and up until now I used different and more recent Dokan driver instead of the one bundled with Keybase (Version I used 1.4.0.1000). kbfs explorer integration kept hanging for me and using more recent version reduced this problem dramatically.
20 days ago there was a new major release of Dokany (2.0) promising better performance in many circumstances, but after upgrading the Dokany version on my computer I can't find my K: drive anymore.
I tried to reinstall Keybase and still no K:/ drive and Keybase doesn't suggest to "install explorer integration" when going to in the files tab.
Any chance to update the bundled Dokany version to a more recent one?
Thank you.
