If a user perform Synchronization that takes like a hour but stumbles in a middle of it opon some kind of inability to access an item [like when forgetting to run FFS as Administrator] then after it is finished a window is produced entitled
Completed with errors
And although this window provides user with a lot of info, it does not have however an option to simply try to redo the erroneous items. It is only possible during Synchronization when it is stopped with a pop-up question on a item-by-item basis - but user might not have time and / or possibility to address this inability on the spot [thus user presses then the Ignore or Ignore All button which in turn lead at the end just a report of errors without a way to tackle on just them]

So please add a button named something like Redo Errors which when pressed will go once more through them trying to do the same Synchronization for only them

Already possible: Just run synchronization again, without needing a new comparison.

That does not check out fully. Because the Synchronize button will go through only items that became missing due to users moving / deleting or renaming them after them being subjected to the initial Scanning process and before their actual synchronization. And also FFS does not come back to files that were locked by another process


And assuming it would work fully, then how would a user suppose to know that if the button does not change its appearance? Maybe a temporarily a second button could appear with a text in it like Synchronize Again All or Redo Full Synchronization?
