Description

I'm using the Keybase client on my Windows 10 machine, and I noticed that I get a notification in the Windows Action Center whenever I create or update a file in one of the Keybase File System folders (i.e. "K:\public", "K:\private", etc.). However, I do not get any notification when I delete a file from one of those folders. I confirmed that deletes are being synced to the Keybase servers correctly. It's just confusing that you get a notification for almost every other action but not deletes. I would suggest adding a notification for whenever a file in one of those folders is deleted. Otherwise people might think that deleting files doesn't get synced to Keybase's servers.

Research direction

The report identifies Windows 10 Action Center notifications for Keybase File System folders as the affected area, but names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the existing create and update notification handling, then confirm that deleting a file produces a corresponding notification without changing sync behavior.
