Nextcloud Mac OS VFS Troubleshooting
Folders either empty or not syncing at all
- Remove
~/Library/Application Support/FileProvider/com.nextcloud etc(this is where the configuration files that tell macOS to mount its providers go - Strongsync doesn't properly clean these up when you delete the connection). - Uninstall Nextcloud (unless you intend to re-establish some connections; if you don't uninstall it, the folder above will re-appear, albeit harmlessly with just some default entries).
- Restart your Mac (must be a restart, not a logout/in, or macOS won't let go enough for you to do the next step).
- Go to
~/Library/CloudStoragein the Finder. Delete the folders that start withNextcloud(you can select and command-delete or drag them to the trash, whichever you prefer). Finder will prompt you for authentication; provide it.
This will do a full reset on the VFS
