Describe the bug
Maestral does not resume syncing after files are deleted by others in a shared folder. The sync status shows 0%, and the remaining files are not uploaded until I restart the application.

To Reproduce
Upload files to a shared Dropbox folder using Maestral, possibly exceeding available space.
Wait for files to start uploading.
Have another person delete some files from the shared folder.
Notice that syncing gets stuck, the status shows 0%, and files are no longer uploaded.
Quit and restart Maestral to resume syncing.

Expected behaviour
Maestral should automatically resume syncing after files are deleted by others, without needing a restart. The sync status should correctly reflect the current state.

System:

  • Maestral version: 1.9.4
  • Python version: (N/A)
  • OS: macOS 15.5
  • Desktop environment: (N/A)
  • PyQt version (for Linux GUI):

Additional context
MacStudio M2 Max
