Description

My Surface, on Windows 10 WiFi connection dropped when I put it to sleep, now I'm not able to access the K drive. KBFS does not appear to be running (from looking at keybase status) From the logs, it appears KBFS isn't logging in for some reaso. I've done keybase -d login, that appears to look normal. Any ideas what I can do to resolve this?

I've sent over my logs, its ID is e3d35881cabb35205658191c

Research direction

Start with the supplied logs (ID e3d35881cabb35205658191c) and reproduce the Windows 10 sleep/WiFi-disconnect sequence. Check KBFS and the outputs of keybase status and keybase -d login to determine why KBFS does not log in or expose the K drive. Done means KBFS remains usable after reconnecting from sleep, with a regression test or documented diagnosis.
