Need folders reset after installing on new machine and revoking old one #2769

Closed copyhacker closed 7 years ago

copyhacker commented 7 years ago

I'm not sure why this happened. Only thing I can figure is that I installed Keybase onto a new laptop and I had the old one open while revoking its key. One of my shared private folders is fine, but another shared one and my personal one both need resetting.

Arg, yeah looks like the old device managed to write to those folders in the same second that the key was revoked, and our code to check the revocation times on keys is being very strict. Do you have any data in those folders that you care about, or is resetting definitely an ok option? We could probably find a way to relax the check for you as a one-time thing if you need to recover the data. But resetting is the easiest thing, if you are definitely ok with it.

@strib Resetting is perfectly fine. Nothing in those folders that needs saving, the shared one is with someone who hasn't joined yet. Thanks!

Ok @copyhacker, done. Do things look ok now? You should be seeing empty folders for those 2 now. Please close this out if things seem ok. Thanks!

All folders working again. Much appreciated!
