F5 no longer refreshing

[pachoe85]

Hi,

I've been using Designer for the past two years and manually refresh the metadata by pressing F5. However, this is no longer working (not aware of any changes/updates I made).

I've tried toggling on/off the "Disable Auto Configure" option in the Advanced tab in User Settings and also tried reinstalling the app but still running into the issue.

How do I get the refresh to work again?

Any chance that you have changed your key board setting and you have press FN + F5 to make it work? 😂

Nope. The workflow actually does look like it refreshes (mouse cursor is spinning as it tries to refresh)  when I press F5 but then nothing updates.  In the image below, the fields do not load even after refreshing. The only way I can see the fields/metadata is actually running the workflow

Any possible ideas as to why this might be occurring?
