Hey everyone.

For about a month I guess, when I hit the two-way sync from my C: drive to my external hard drive and then to my google drive the files havent been syncing up. Right now I'm trying to figure out if I can recover anything from that time frame.

There are the temporary recycle bin folders leftover from each sync I've done, but the only thing inside of them are the folders and none of the files. I'm confused because I followed the directions to the "t" and saw that the syncs completed each time. There's not trace in the trash of any drive and I'm running an advanced file recovery right now.

Any suggestions?

FFS shouldn't be leaving any temporary recycle bin folders, FFS deletes to the "Recycle Bin" that Windows uses, if set to do so. Don't check the actual recycle bin folders on the drive itself, check the Windows "Recycle Bin", which shows all contents of every recycle bin connected
