Error using WinHello with database saved in Google Drive locally synced folder #42

Describe the bug
This just started happening today. I have been using WinHello with KeePass on a Windows 10 machine to use my WinX Hello PIN to log into my database, which has an extremely long and complicated Master PW only. I just updated KeePass (portable) from 2.43 to 2.44 and WinHello is breaking on that same database. If I export the database to another folder (not synchronized to Google Drive) WinHello works with KeePass 2.44 and that database with no issues. If I revert to KP 2.43, it works perfectly fine with the database in my Google Drive synced folder.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open KP 2.44 (portable), open database in Google Drive folder
  2. Enter WinX Hello PIN
  3. See error (screenshot below)

Expected behavior
Obviously, I expect it to open my database as it always has.

Screenshot of error

KeePass WinHello plugin error #1

Additional context
I had a brainstorm to see if it would work from another folder, and v 2.44 + WinHello works as expected from another folder and an exported database, as well as a "save as" database to another location. I also noticed that reverting to KP 2.43 works with the original database that is saved in my Google Drive locally synced folder.

List of all plugins in KP:

KeePass WinHello plugin error #2
KeePass WinHello plugin error #3
KeePass WinHello plugin error #4

Windows 10 Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.592)
