Cannot deactivate "Sync hidden files" before having at least 1 sync connection #1346

Open Murcl opened 5 years ago

Murcl commented 5 years ago

Expected behaviour

I want to deactivate "Sync hidden files" before establishing my first sync connection (syncing my Windows user folder). I don't want the AppData folder (which is a hidden folder) to be synchronized.

Actual behaviour

I cannot deactivate this setting, it always resets itself. After I setup a sync connection I can normally toggle this setting as it should be.

Steps to reproduce

  1. First start of the Nextcloud Windows client
  2. Login
  3. Skip folders configuration
  4. General -> Edit Ignored Files -> Sync hidden files
  5. Uncheck it
  6. Close window
  7. Open window again and see that it is still checked

Same problem on Debian Stretch and Buster (Version 2.5.1git) I fixed this by adding pattern .* to "files ignored by patterns", but that will work only on Linux.

I can reproduce that with a build from master. I guess we will fix that eventually.
