This error means MFS root CID is no longer in your local datastore:

ipld: could not find QmegtvYwvUYRTF7e4WgE1GepFRqqj5Z7SAs42RpKnJQEWg

It means you experienced a storage corruption for one of two reasons:

• could be hardware failure (disk issues)
• or you manually removed something from IPFS_PATH / .ipfs.

Until better UX is implemented upstream (tracked in https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/issues/7183#issuecomment-2658029979), there are two way of solving this:

• If you have this CID on some other node, try ipfs dag export there and then ipfs dag import on the one that fails.
• If you don't have access to missing CID, try shutting down IPFS Desktop, renaming .ipfs to .ipfs.old and then starting it again. A fresh repository will be created for you. If you want to recover CIDs from .ipfs.old, you can set it as IPFS_PATH for command line troubleshooting.

Let us know if any of the above helped.

Thank you! The second solution works, I finally can use IPFS again!
