Description

Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.26-20170724101459+b095a79

I have a shared folder with someone. The first problem was that most of the files were corrupted, after living in the folder for a couple of months. Both of us experienced this. I re-loaded the files to the folder, and the other person reports that after two days, they disappeared on her end. I can still see the files.

Research direction

The report concerns Keybase GUI 1.0.26 and a shared folder whose files were corrupted or disappeared for one participant; it names no files, tests, or code entry points. Begin by reproducing the shared-folder inconsistency using the reported version context; done means both participants consistently see intact files after they are reloaded.
