Issue with MD5 HASH CACHE on cloud drive

Help & Support
1

Hi,

I'm currently running DOpus 12.21, and today when I added the md5sum column I started to see these 'OpenHashCache' files.

I have Used Hash Caches enabled, and the command used to display the column was

GetSizes NODESELECT MD5 USEHASHCACHE

However I've never seen the cache files before.

Note, this is in a virtual drive created by the 'pCloud' client, and the files are stored on pCloud. If I had to guess, I would suggest it doesn't support "alt streams" transparently, or at all.

Cheers

That's a bug in the cloud storage software. It's treating NTFS ADS (Alternate Data Streams) as separate files. If it doesn't support ADS, it should fail the request to create them, not create them as standalone files.

You should report the issue to the people that make the cloud storage software.

I'm happy to do that, but given my experience with their "support", is there any setting in DOpus I could use to exclude it from using ADS while I wait for it to be fixed?

Thanks

Turning off the MD5 Cache option.
