I was trying to use FFS to sync my Visual Studio bin directory and some other folders into a location I use for deployment. For some reason, it was totally ignoring the files but shows they successfully transferred.
As a test, I placed a copy of the files in a folder called "test" in my Documents folder and tried to sync them to another folder in my Documents called "test2".
Is there some inbuilt restriction on filetypes (.dll, .pdb, .xml, and .cuix) that might be preventing the transfer?
I've included a screenshot that shows it thinks it worked, but you can see it provides no path information on the right hand side.
Thanks!

What you show is the result of a Compare between the test and test2 folders.
And apparently, the listed files are present in test, but not (yet) in test2.
The FFS GUI also shows the intended action: to copy all shown files from test to test2.
Only when actually running the sync (by cilcking the Synchronize button (right top), the files will actually be copied.
