[TheFibonacciEffect]

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the newest Element release through pacman
2. Open Element
3. Be greeted by a message that the session was unable to be restored

Outcome

What did you expect?

That Element just opens and I can write a message to my collegues

What happened instead?

the session was unable to be restored

Operating system

Arch Linux

Application version

1.11.87-1

How did you install the app?

pacman

Homeserver

ethz.ch

Will you send logs?

Yes

[TheFibonacciEffect]

It seems to be easy to just log in again and all the messages are there again. So its fine, I guess.
EDIT: No there seem to be some issues with encrypted messages. I will try to copy paste the encryption keys from my smartphone manually.

Manually exporting the key file from my phone and importing into Element works like a charm 👍

I guess the only thing is that I now have 38 unread messages in the top left, that are not actually unread. I couldnt find a way to mark all as read, but that will be solvable eventually I guess.

@TheFibonacciEffect do you use gnome-keyring or similar software with Element?

Then it looks like you have the same problem as me. Would you close the issue and write your findings in my issue element-hq/element-desktop#2028?

The issue is part of issue element-hq/element-desktop#2028
