Hello,

I’m just posting this as a warning to anyone using Cryptomator for serious stuff. I’ve been using it in not-very-critical stuff for some years now and the reality is that I’ve had data loss on multiple occasions under Windows.

I had two major incidents:

  • After creating a vault in Google Drive (via Cyberduck) it worked fine for some time but eventually the vault was empty;
  • Long file names seem to f*k something and the files simply vanish after opening the vault a few times.

If you google “cryptomator data loss” there are a LOT of complaints and frankly I’ll ditch it now.

    I use it with Dropbox. I haven’t noticed any data loss. I’ll have to investigate.

      Well we never notice until it is too late. My experience (and others apparently) is that files go missing randomly inside your folder, usually long names / very deep stuff that you won’t look at everyday. I also got a few image files that got corrupted.
