Issues Addressed
Enhanced File Synchronization and Save Handling (ArcGIS Pro)
Improved the synchronization flow between the Desktop App and Smart Cache to ensure consistent handling of file identifiers during rapid save operations. Applications like ArcGIS Pro now save projects reliably without intermittent sync errors or data loss.
Permissions Issue Causing Unauthorized Folder Deletions on Hybrid Drives
Fixed an issue where users without delete permissions could inadvertently remove folders on hybrid-connected drives.
Stability Improvements for Autodesk Revit Central File Saves (Smart Cache SMB Mode)
Resolved a crash scenario in Autodesk Revit when saving central files without sufficient permissions through Smart Cache. Revit now correctly shows an access denied message, enabling users to save their work safely to an alternate location.
