Even desktop is AWOL at the moment. I was running an encrypted APFS partition before upgrading to Catalina. Realistically should I down grade or hope the next beta fixes it? I haven't seen any other mention of this issue thus far.

Solved it! If you're in the same boat at me (No files, Icloud crashes constantly) then you can fix it via "internet accounts" NOT Appleid settings, uncheck icloud drive and choose "keep a copy". After finder crashes you can renable icloud

Everything will magically appear. No idea where the files were in lou however but I am just glad that everything is back.

FINAL EDIT: The files will reappear in ~/icloud archive. It's up to you if you want to try moving everything back. I opted just to delete the archive and resync icloud. Everything is working now.

[doublepost=1563820563][/doublepost]I'm stumped. Where is ~/icloud.archive?

The system says it is stored in "iCloud Drive (Archive)" in your home folder"

Can't find either! Help!
