The only time I don't get the Z drive is when the Z drive is already in use by another program or the Z drive is not disconnected with Blomp properly. Would you check with the task manager that rClone or Bliomp is not running and try again?

So, thanks to Austin we were finally able to get a Z: drive to map on my home computer. The problem was that my computer (well, RClone) was STILL trying to upload files I had started uploading a couple months ago. I think it just couldn't map the drive until it was done, and that wasn't going to be any time soon. So to fix it, I had to delete the folder at C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\rclone\vfs\remote\[you.email].This folder contained all the files being uploaded EVEN THOUGH they originally came from a different hard drive. Once I deleted that folder and restarted Blomp, my Z: drive mapped properly.

Now, I just need to understand the speed issue. Of the files I had already uploaded, I again attempted to delete a folder containing about 2.6GB of data. It eventually deleted but took it nearly two hours! Why would that be? The work I'm wanting to do using Blomp all contains rather large files so faster is better. Some slowness might be alright, but if it's too slow it will be useless for me. I'll try things out and see how it goes.

Hi

Sorry for the late response. Glad you got your Z drive back.
I'll look into the slow file deletion.

Please continue providing us your feedback.

Thank you
