Bugfix - Fix VFS enable/disable checkbox in the folder wizard: #12144
After unchecking the VFS checkbox on the last page of the folder wizard, it could not be re-checked. The selective-sync chooser is now correctly disabled when VFS is forced on, and the selective-sync page is skipped entirely in that case to avoid confusion.

-
Bugfix - Fix file sync with NFD/NFC filename normalization differences on macOS: #12336
After a migration from 6.x to 7.x, files whose names were stored in NFD form locally but NFC form on the server were incorrectly treated as a delete and re-upload instead of a rename. Local normalization-only renames are now detected and not propagated to the server, since these differences are not visible to users.

Bugfix - Fix compatibility with extra-cmake-modules-6.19.0: #12374

-
Bugfix - Fix crash on PROPFIND HTTP 400 response: #12380
The client no longer crashes when a server responds with HTTP status 400 to a PROPFIND request.
-
Bugfix - Make Windows VFS (CfAPI) locking more granular: #12386
CfAPI locks are now acquired and released more precisely, reducing contention. Sibling items are now consistently grouped in the Explorer sidebar.
-
Bugfix - Fix re-authentication prompt: #12487
When an access token expired but the refresh token was still valid, the client incorrectly prompted the user to re-authenticate instead of transparently refreshing the token.

Change - Update sync exclusion list for Infinite Scale: #12093
Two file extensions commonly produced by ownCloud Infinite Scale were added to the default sync exclusion list.
-
Change - Remove the command line sync client: #12162

Change - Remove support for ownCloud Server (OC10): #12167

The account and folder management panel was rewritten with a new model/delegate architecture. It features improved error display, better tree navigation, context menus for folder actions, and visual polish throughout.
