Sync error report ID: 1487362653

To get the following error, I start up Zotero, it syncs but the red exclamation mark appears at the top right of the screen. I was doing a bunch of Tools > Manage attachments > Convert linked files to stored files operations when the exclamation mark first appeared. Restarting the computer does not solve this either.

Thank you for your help!

Leon.

  • What is "AgLandscapes" at that path? Is that a file without an extension or a folder (which shouldn't be there).

    Basically this is just saying that Zotero can't access that file. Usually this is due to a permissions problem or security software on the computer preventing Zotero from accessing the disk, but it's a bit weird that there's no file extension.
