No TSS context menu items on Windows Agent

Starting with Resilio Connect v2.10, Agents are switched to transparent selective sync which uses special Window's API to manage files selectively.

Files can be downloaded or cleared using context menu items: Always keep on this device, Free up space.

Keep in mind

These context menus are not present on an SMB share although users can pick files to be downloaded by opening them or using the attrib command in Command Prompt.

If they are missing for a local folder for which Transparent Selective Sync is enabled, follow the steps to troubleshoot:

1) Make sure that Advanced Selective Sync is enabled for this agent in Agent Profile.

2) File system is NTFS.

3) Resilio Connect Agent is registered as a sync root provider. Open Registry editor and check that the following values are created in \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\SyncRootManager\Resilio Connect Agent!S-1-1-0!AllFolders

Manually create values from the table below if necessary

Value name Type Value data
DisplayNameResource String value Resilio Connect Agent
Flags DWORD (32-bit) Value 0x22
IconResource String value "%path_agent_exe%",-2
NamespaceCLSID String value {3F3BA431-CC20-4D47-A12E-5EC271B27967}

4) Check that the directory in question is specifically registered as a sync root directory in \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\SyncRootManager\Resilio Connect Agent!S-1-1-0!AllFolders\UserSyncRoot where the name of the key is shareID.
