Opening a separate ticket as requested.
I'm using Freefilesync 5.0 (but earlier versions have the same issue).
I use Freefilesync to synchronize files and folders to a common network share,
the files and folders are used for reporting and completion of projects etc.
It is therefore of outmost importance that what I have locally on my machine
is what is present on the central share.
Today I got a report that some files were missing, so I investigated and found
that some files indeed was missing, do I did a new comparison and sync with no
problems, or so I thought. I received no report or error message, but I could
see in the reported list of files and folders on the right side of the
comparison that several directories was missing from one of the folders.
I looked at it closed and found that Freefilesync did not report these
directories to even exist, even if it did not exist on the left side folder at
all, I checked manually as well. So I reset the settings on the sync job to
the folder that was missing the subfolders in the comparison and did a fresh
compare, but no difference.
I then went ahead and deleted the freefilesync DB that was connected to that
particular job, sync.ffs_db, and did a re-comparison, this time it reported 2
or the 3 missing directories.
I've also tried to set the sync settings different between automatic, mirror
and update, but that doesn't change anything in the results.
Files and folders are missed

It should say 2 of 3, not "or".
