How to Fix Sign-In Hang on the Appodeal AdMob Sync App (a Desktop App) on Windows


So I tried to sync my ads inventory and update to the latest Appodeal AdMob Sync App, but I got stuck due to a sign-in bug as shown on the screen. To fix the issue, I tried the following steps: reinstalling the app, logging in and out, and resetting the Appodeal password — nothing helped.

Solution 

Cause of problem - broken data in Admob Sync folder located in Roaming folder :
