Description

When I try to open, my public folder, my private folder, or a shared private folder I have I get Keybase saying it timed out. And Windows says that I have insufficient resources to open the directory.

my log id after only trying to open my private folder is: 5d3b025ffa876867d6d8b01c
my log id after trying to open all three folders is : eb10b4ca3ff74b1d90e3da1c

Research direction
