    Proton Drive is online-only so I’m not sure what you’re asking here. Are you asking if you can download files?

    The Google Drive app lets you save a file locally so that you can view it offline. I mean under the hood it is just downloading and syncing, but it’s a lot nicer than having to manage the files you want to view offline yourself.

    That’s a big negative.

    Why? Desktop file backup seems like a pretty similar feature to mobile photo backup (which seems to be working for me).

    Edit: also looking at some videos of the Windows client, folder syncing seems to be possible. Just not yet on Linux. Still not sure why it would be bad.










  • I’ve tried factory resetting the router, and have reinstalled the app several times. I think I’ve gotten, if not to the source, than further down the chain.

    1. Port Management requires cloud services, which is why it redirects me to the place where I can enable that.
    2. However when I try enabling it, it is “Unable to save settings.”
    3. I tried to “Restart entire network” which revealed that it is “Unable to communicate with your network at this time.”

    And that’s the core thing I don’t know how to get around. The app can’t actually interact with the network. That explains why restarting the network hasn’t fixed it in the past. I don’t understand how it could be an issue only I have though, since it happens regardless of reinstalling the app.
