Thanks for reporting this. Has been reported a couple of times before with many different syncing setups involved. Dropbox, Syncthing, now Google.
Could you check out the latest developer preview? You'll find it here on GitHub.
It contains a differently configured implementation of the file watcher, which is most likely to be the issue here. I wonder if it also happens with that one.
I grabbed sleek-2.0.0-dev9-win.exe. I'll run with it and see how it does. Thanks for the prompt reply!
I haven't seen this problem since switching to the Dev image. I think your changes fixed it. Closing the issue.
I've been keeping up on the 2.x builds. Is it acceptable to file bugs against those builds, or would you rather I wait until it's officially released?
The specific bug I'm seeing, which is also in the 1.x versions, has to do with the creation date. Actually 2 bugs.
Repro looks like this:
If it's acceptable to file bugs on 2.x, I will file it tomorrow.
Otherwise I'll hold off and hope it gets fixed.
Thanks.
Eric

Hi Eric. Since the recurrence module has been completely re-implemented, it is absolutely ok to open a bug report for this.
Bug Report
IMPORTANT: Please follow this template strictly when reporting bugs. Providing detailed and accurate information helps the development team to understand and address the issue effectively.
App Version: 1.3.1
Platform: Windows
Installation Method: App Store
Bug Description: Multiple times per day, Sleek will prompt asking me to open or create a todo.txt file. Happens frequently when the laptop is coming out of connected standby or hibernation. But sometimes it just happens while the laptop is awake and in use.
I sync the todo.txt file across machines using Google Drive. My guess is Drive is updating the todo.txt file at the split second Sleek tries to access it and there is a conflict, so Sleek fails and prompts for a new file. (Just guessing)
When Sleek prompts for a new file, it is already displaying the todo items from the file it has been using. You can see that in the screen shot.
Steps to Reproduce:
Expected Behavior: Sleek should see the file has changed while this machine was sleeping. Sleek should just reload the file and go on with life.
Actual Behavior: Frequently, Sleek will prompt me to open an existing todo.txt file, or create a new one.

System Information:
Reproducibility:
Impact:
Workaround: No work around. I have to reload the todo.txt file each time this happens.
