Repro steps:

  • Create new file from within an application.
  • Select Save as from windows menu and then select Drive.
  • When saving, an empty file is created of the same name as the "Save As" filename. In Citrix environments, this is repeated for each and every folder you navigate to.
  • You are then warned that a file already exists and are asked to overwrite the destination.

jpgaribotti pushed a commit to jpgaribotti/google-drive-shell-extension that referenced this issue Jul 3, 2015
Added three macros to check constraints and homogenize error signaling.

Removed a block that was adding newly created files to the ignoredIds map and preventing the explorer view from showing the new file.

Corrected an error return in _GetDataFromID from invalid argument to file not found.

Simplified the code for GetAttributesOf.

Small regression introduced with the pull request: Overwriting existing files fails with "The system cannot find the path specified."

As we no longer create dummy files when checking if a path exists, "existing" files that haven't been downloaded don't actually yet exist, and so can't be overwritten.
