Alchemy Browser Completely Empty

Something very peculiar is going on with Alchemy.  All of my presets have vanished from the browser canvas.  However, all 15 gb of presets are accessible through the 'Factory Default' menu.  They just don't show up in the browser canvas anymore... just out of the blue!

 

Things I've tried:

...Restarting Logic

...File - Refresh Library

...Logic Pro X - Sound Library - Reinstall...

...Reinstalling Logic

...Restarting computer

...Deleting Logic cache

...Making sure search bar is empty

...Making sure all categories have 'All' selected

...Double checking read & write permissions on Alchemy folder

...Reinstalling macOS Sierra

...Repairing disk utilities

 

I can't think of any other solutions and I've looked everywhere online for an answer.  What can I do??  This is driving me crazy.

Just to show you guys what I'm dealing with.

Just in case anyone else is having this problem, try following these steps that fixed alchemy for me.

 

Quit Logic

Navigate to User/Music/Audio Music Apps/Plug-In Settings/Alchemy

Delete "Alchemy_Preset_Ratings_And_Tags.db" file

Launch Logic.  Alchemy should force refresh as it did for me

Hi,

Since I have the same problem and the solutions proposed did not work for me, but I found out what was the cause for me... here it is:

 

I am using Google Drive (the latest version) on my M1 MacMini and I had just added the Alchemy folder to the Google Drive folders. It should have worked seamlessly but... I could not browse Alchemy settings any more.

 

I eventually removed the folder from Google Drive sync, alas, and Alchemy resumed normal functioning.
