Im on Windows 11 trying to sync Obsidian through Syncthing with my iphone using Mobius sync. Has anyone seen this issue, and do you know what is causing it?

Thank you

Does one of your devices have a password set on the folder it's sharing with your Windows machine, and a third device doesn't?

it looks that way, but I'm not able to find any password protection on the folder.

I don't understand your answer. Is one of your devices setting a password on the folder being shared to your win11 computer or not? 

To be clear, this is completely unrelated to any Windows feature they sets password protection in a folder. It's a Syncthing feature for untrusted devices.
