Since Upgrade to Classic 14.4 Keywords not loaded to LR-Cloud

Since I have upgraded to Classic 14.4 I have noticed the ketwords are not uploaded to LR-Cloud Sync.

 

I have tested with several files and purged smart previews / save metadata to files etc  (All the advice given on  google search). 

 

Has anybody else seen this issue, and hopefully have a workaround / Fix.

 

Classic V14.4 on Windows 10

Syncing of keywords no longer works. This is not new for version 14.4, it is so since the sync engine was renewed (about half a year ago, I think). There is no work around and there won't be a fix, because keyword sync was never meant to work.

It worked briefly and quite unintentionally (read: untested) between releases 13.3 and 13.3.1. 
It should not have worked after that.

It that also for the initial upload of keywords? I know they never sync'd with changes once uploaded.

Yes, the initial upload worked for a long time, but no longer.

OK Thanks - I think I jumped to 14.4 from early release of 13. Should have left it as was. Very annoying, I use the kewords to search on LR-Mobile.
