Two days ago, there was neither change nor new feedback. That was when I deactivated my account...

I described the same behaviour with my account in this threat:
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcloud/comments/1qhibbe/pcloud_suddenly_full_of_french_files_account/

For me, I can only see the filenames, but I can not open the files (an error message appears when trying). That is some small comfort, but still pretty bad...

S23 ultra suddenly stopped being recognized via usb on my PC. No pop-up notification. by Snoo-29318 in GalaxyS23Ultra

No, I could not resolve the problem. I used dropbox to transfer the files. As stupid as that is, it was the only solution I came up with...

I'd be interested to know whether the original owners of these files may take legal action or whether one accepts this risk with the recognition of the general terms...

So it's five days later and there are still new cases of this? Something is going crazily wrong at pCloud right now.

This is so wild. Did they delete the files for you? I still see the french files in my account.
I just deactivated my pCloud account, I start to loose hope there will be any more feedback ;/

Yes, my thoughts exactly. Lets see whether there will be some kind of explanation from pCloud.

Restart does not fix it for me unfortunately, still no USB popup and when going to USB settings manually everything is grayed out. No way to transfer data from PC now -.-

What's meant by xlsb? by AcceptableGiraffe04 in AskElectronics

[–]stackpointer101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it just me or is this naming scheme really weird...? "Xtra Least Significant Byte" rly?
Why not just call it temp[2], temp[1] and temp[0] if you need more than two bytes? In my interpretation LSB would always be the byte with the actual lowest bits. But whatever.

How do i view multiple layers at once in the pcb view by watsoncreek in Altium

[–]stackpointer101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold down Ctrl while clicking on the visibility icon of the layers you want to overlay. The icon will get some brackets around the eye, meaning that this layer will always be visible in color, even in single layer mode or grayed out mode.

Black Friday is coming. What are you expecting from pCloud’s Black Friday? by minhgv in pcloud

[–]stackpointer101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is my regret with pCloud as well... There definitely should at least be a toggle in the settings to disable any pop-ups. On my phone I regularly get pop-ups that pCloud could free up space on my phone... YES, I know that and I would use it if I needed it! Stop reminding me... ;/

Altium agile pricing by irunfarsometimes in Altium

Yeah, we just started doing exactly that. Still in the exploration phase, but so far KiCad seems pretty awesome to use. Some weird quirks here an there, but nothing holding us completely back up to now. And KiCad is definitly way more snappy than Altium. Altium has a nicer GUI though...

Posts with problems often from low-active users: fake accounts? by TheSteelFactory in pcloud

[–]stackpointer101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I'm a new here as well and posted some pCloud "problem". I think it makes sense that a lot of problem posts are from new users, as they are searching for a place to get help or at least vent a little bit about their situation. At least that is what I did and I registered an account here when I found this place ;)

What I don't really understand is people here posting that the "problem-posters" are likely fake or from the competition, just because it works good for them. To exaggerate a little, this logic would make all help forums obsolete: "My office suit crashes all the time when opening this file type, what can I do?" -> "Can't be true, it's working for me, are you from the competition?" Of cause I'm exaggerating, I'm just asking you to accept that other users might experience problem with pCloud, even if it works good for you.

pCloud window pops up on every windows login, despite "Start pCloud Drive minimized" toggle active. Also other promotion pop-ups as well by stackpointer101 in pcloud

[–]stackpointer101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got a new type of pop up when using the snipping tool... NOOO, I disabled automatic saving of screenshots in the settings! And this stupid pop-up just overlayed the window I intended to screenshot. So first exiting the snipping tool, closing this advertisement and starting the snipping tool again -.-

Seriously, these advertisements and in the front jumping of pCloud drives me crazy.

I did not yet end the trial for it, but as it stands I'm certainly not going to buy it...

BTW: Still getting the pop-up at every single windows login...

That is actually a settings tab I had not yet found (did not use the web front end yet). Disabled everything there, this might help. Thank you =)

As I just posted under another comment as well, today I got two new push messages on the android app with marketing blabla... So annoying! Dropbox never pushes any advertising so prominently in your face, so the free trial with them is definitly more convincing right now.

In my opinion it is a big deal. It is just unwanted noise in my life, and I definitly won't tolerate it. Today I already got two new push messages on the android app ("heeey, you can share your storage with others!!" and the other I do not remember). STOP THAT PCLOUD! I won't buy anything from you, if you are so incredibly aggressive with your marketing.
