I did a sync between 2 drives of a set of folders with lots of pictures. After the sync the folder size did not match. I found that the filter was set to exclude thumb.db files. I removed the exclusion and when i tried a compare it started and then told me it would take over an hour to compare what had taken less than 2 minutes before. Any ideas why the major change?

Nevermind - realized that the compare was set to contents inadvertantly.
