I own them. They are not shared. I happens on all 3 of my accounts.
It’s Windows 7 Ultimate.
@Filip Ok, I have cc’d one of our engineers @dipesh
If you haven’t, email the logs to support@insynchq.com.
Thanks.
I just want to know if this issue was solved. It looks that in the last update (I installed it yesterday) on Ubuntu 14.04 everything works well again.
For some reason files are deleted randomly by “Someone”. Im worry about this too.
Thank you.
I have the same issue!
Is it solved?
@Humberto_Jimenez We have to investigate your logs. Please send it to support@insynchq.com. I will forward it immediately to to engineer for investigation.
Thank you for your patience.
Recently I send mail to support with logs attached
I have forwarded your logs and out a hig priority on this issue. @dipesh will get back to you soon.
Thank you.
I just noticed this morning that the same thing is happening to me. Files that were added while Insync was offline are deleted. It’s as if it syncs from Google first, so since those new files didn’t sync and aren’t in my Google Drive yet, they just get wiped out as if I had deleted them from Google instead of being uploaded. This is very not cool, as I’m now deeply concerned about what I may have lost without even realizing it. I guess I’ll go dumpster diving in the Google Drive Trash and Insync trash now.
Also wanted to note, at least some of the files that were deleted are NOT in the Insync trash, so there’s no real way to know what’s been lost. Thankfully, this has happened before, so I back up my Google Drive folders with Crashplan too.
Let me know where to upload my logs, maybe that will help. Thanks!
@Humberto_Jimenez @jtrout: The files’ trashing and re-uploading issue was related to external and network drives getting disconnected frequently. It was fixed a while back in the version 1.2.8
@Humberto_Jimenez I have replied to your email. The Insync version you have been using is 1.2.7 and it hasn’t auto updated because of the connectivity issue to s.insynchq.com at your end.
@jtrout: This should not happen at all. The files that are added while Insync was offline should get uploaded when it is running again. Insync cannot do direct deletions - if a file has been deleted locally, it trashes on Google Drive. If the file has been trashed/unshared remotely, it puts it in the .insync-trash folder locally for 30 days before permanently deleting it. Please upload the compressed copy of the dbs folder (present next to the logs.db) file to Google Drive and send it to support@insynchq.com along with the example of filenames that you think were deleted.
Thanks
Hey @Dipesh, I have the logs zipped up but it’s 68 MB. How would you like me to get these to you?
Thanks!

@jtrout Please share it to support@insynchq.com and email us the shared link and the link of this post.
Thank you.
I sent Support the link to the dbs with a detailed description of the issue, file names, and a link to this forum post. That was a week ago, and I haven’t heard anything - are you able to find out if that was received, and what the status is?
Thanks!

@jtrout I’m trying to look for your logs and I can’t find it. Please re-send your logs.db and out.txt file to support@insynchq.com.
I have the exact same problem. I can see there is 49.8 Gb in trash from the Insynch data panel. This is more than 2 years of work. I sent the logs.db, out.txt and screenshots to support@insynchq.com. All my 49.8 GB files a been deleted… i and my team don’t have any access. I tried to find the insynchq trash folder but was not possible.
My colleague receive this message as well: http://screencast.com/t/jLBdV47XXid
This one also: http://screencast.com/t/MDAiZLOJ
It is freezing my complete team, client + collaborators…
Please help! Thank You!
Please send us your logs.db and out.txt to support@insynchq.com
Also, include the link of this post.
Thank you.
Hey everyone!
Sorry I’m so long in getting back to this, it’s been a crazy couple of weeks. @Roald, I just sent my logs.db and out.txt files to support. I replied to my original message with the link to the shared zip of the dbs folder that @dipesh had requested, and asked that someone confirm that they’ve at least received this latest e-mail. Hopefully something in there makes some sense to you guys.
Steve, I’m not honestly sure how many files were lost. I can get some of them out of the Google Drive trash, but others appear to have been deleted from the local hard drive by Insync without ever having been uploaded to Google Drive. I suspect I lost files in that manner that I can’t get back, since the Insync trash is emptied every 30 days.
It’d be great if you guys could let me know if you get the e-mail(s) this morning, or if there’s still some issue?
Thanks again!

Hello everyone,
I am having the same issue.
When using the trial period, we successfully synced files across 6 different drives. When our trial period expired we had to wait a couple of weeks for the purchase of the pro version to be authorised by our company.
Once we applied the licence, the first thing insync did was to move all online files to Google drive trash. Local files stayed as they were (just not syncing anymore).
We restored all the files from the trash (this resulted in files being duplicated locally). The workaround we found to avoid duplication of files was to delete files locally first, then restore files from Google drive trash.
It worked! Except the next day, all online files had been moved to Google drive trash again.
We use Windows 7 Pro and our files are locally saved on a shared network drive. We own all the files and have shared the vast majority of them (anyone with the links can view – not edit the files).
I have emailed our logs. I am not sure what to do next? How can we stop files from being moved to the trash?
Thank you,
Sarah
