I followed the instructions:
- Files have stopped syncing (files are stuck on queue, no progress is happening) or Insync is syncing everything from Google Drive automatically upon initial setup (no option to Selectively sync files)
This problem has been found to occur across newly set-up accounts on Insync. The recommended fix for this is to re-setup your account:
Install Insync 1.4.442 (if it has not auto-updated for you already)
Remove account
Add account again and select an empty folder as Insync folder during setup
Selectively sync the items you want to sync
But throughout the day, I got a new project on a flash drive, copied the files to the local synchronized directory. The insync started uploading some files and then froze the sync.
I ran the instructions described at IMPORTANT: Insync 1.4.4 release addresses stuck syncing and selective sync issues again
I made tests with other files from other projects that were arriving during the week and the error repeats itself, when I copy a new directory with about 100 files or more (which does not yet exist in the local synchronized folder), the inscync freezes.
I ran Downgrade to version 1.3.24 that works perfectly.
Version Considerations 1.4.4
1- Fix the file upload bug from the local directory for Google Drive.
2- You need to have the checkbox to select which folders to sync. right click and sync one by one is very labor intensive for those who have large amounts stored in GDrive.
3- The synchronization of version 1.3.24 is much faster than version 1.4.4
