2021.2 disable IDE sync
Answered
I just installed 2021.2 and have some trouble with the synchronization of my IDE settings (sync failed). I'm not sure if i have problems with my companies firewall or with my account settings. So i wanted to reset settings synchronization by disabling and reenabling it. But i'm missing "Disable sync" in the menu. Disabling and reanbling the plugin doesn't work. How can i reset the sync settings?
Kind Regards

Hi Andreas,
Did you install 2021.2 from scratch or update from an older version?
What do you mean by 'missing'? Is the menu option inactive or doesn't show up in the list under 'IDE Settings Sync'?
Could you please attach the logs generated with Help | Collect Logs and Diagnostics Data? You can upload the file securely to https://uploads.jetbrains.com/ and provide the upload id.
Hi Arina,
thanks for the quick answer. Meanwhile i solved the problem. Before i uploaded the logs i took a look inside and found an error regarding to an invalid certificate when trying to access cloudconfig.jetbrains.com. This let me remember that our IT break up ssl connections to inspect them for virus and malware. So i disconnected my laptop from the network and used our guest wlan (which don't have the issue). and voilà, synchronization of settings worked 😊.
But nevertheless i expected to be able to disable sync, but i can't because my menu looks like this:
So i only have the chanc to disable the plugin itself.
Kind Regards
Andreas
Good to know you managed to resolve the sync problem Andreas.
Do you have a Settings Repository configuration in place in the IDE?
no, just this:
