Description Rafael Lima 2024-08-13 12:53:40 UTC 
I have been having this problem for a long time now... and it happens occasionally, possibly 2 or 3 times a week at random.

Whenever I save a LO file in a cloud provider (I use pCloud and OneDrive), the files end up with 0 bytes. Apparently at first they're saved as expected, but then some synchronization issue happens and brings the file to 0 bytes.

Then I have to go to the online cloud and download the file again to restore it.

This has happened for a long time now and apparently it affects various users.

I have never had this issue with other applications... only LO files cause this issue to me.
