August 15, 20214 yr Since updating to 6.10, some files and folders inside appdata are not visible on Windows. The whole appdata folder wasn't being exported as the update changed this from export: yes to export: yes(hidden). - why? I've changed it back to export: yes, but there are a few folders in there that are showing as empty in Windows explorer, but if i go into the affected container's colsole, I can see the files with `ls -la`. Any ideas? Edited August 15, 20214 yr by jj_uk
August 15, 20214 yr Could be naming issues on the folders. EG: with 2 folders named TEST1 and test1 you will only see the contents of one of them.
August 15, 20214 yr Author I don't think it's that. If I try to navigate to an affected folder using the Krusader app, I get an access denied error. The permissions for the folders are: drw-rw-rw- 1 99 users 32 May 6 04:49 blueprints

August 15, 20214 yr Author Thanks, yes, that's fixed it. I didn't change that permission on the folders. Maybe a bug?
August 15, 20214 yr Permissions on the directory don’t look correct, in order to enter a directory it should have the x (eXecute) permission.

August 15, 20214 yr Community Expert I believe this has occurred in the past to folks. It is usually traced to a plugin, Docker or VM which has been misconfigured. Look at the directory and see if you can figure out which 'program' actually generated that directory. Those would not be 'bad' permissions for data files as most data files would not be executable!
August 15, 20214 yr Appdata folders have their own unique permission requirements which may or may not be compatible over SMB. Your mileage may vary.
August 15, 20214 yr Author I just installed a new instance of the container and it set all created folders to r-x, as expected.
