Failed to add files to IPFS. Please try again. [0.7.1]

See original GitHub issue

Under 0.6.1 I was able to add files. I upgraded to 0.7.0 this week, I can still see my previous files that were pinned, but I’m unable to add new files or folders as it simply gives the error message: Failed to add files to IPFS. Please try again.

If I add from IPFS then it works fine. I upgraded to 0.7.1 and it has the same error. The error.log file is empty, so there are no logs I can attach.

I did some research and it seems there was an issue, but it was fixed 2 months ago in the IPFS-webUI. https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-webui/issues/928

Thanks. I can confirm now that clicking “add file” now works.

However clicking “add folder” seems to add an empty folder. I have created a new bug with screencapture to track it https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-desktop/issues/884
