My desktop app's stuck indexing files after rebooting my computer.

I had to reboot my computer and since I have restarted it, my files will not sync. Status shows either a red X or pending. I have tried to log out and log back in, reinstall the desktop to no avail. ...

So here is what it's saying: Indexing: 24 files. Uploading: 127,100. Downloading 897,409 as of this morning. I tried to uncheck some of my case files and perform selective sync so it wasn't as much to download. Tried logging out and logging back in.  Not sure if I made it worse by trying these solutions as well.
