Just download 0.29.0 and install again? I suggest back-up your /.ipfs folder and IPFS config first.

@SgtPooki a quick glance through https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs-desktop/pull/2378/files#diff-1e21cb865e345e2dfb1124c0d74cd1fe42d7f1985346c5814d1bef9bee6e8b9aR39 this could be the root cause of this issue.

I just installed again the 0.29.0 version, without uninstall anything.

All looks fine, but this could break the downloads?

Because i'm getting 504 Gateway timeout on my download links, and those are very little size files.

And my node is up and running.

@ZeroCool22 IPFS-Desktop is just a GUI for Kubo running in the background, so running an old version should not impact anything as long as the IPFS Repository verison is the same. we have a fix coming out shortly
