It is a hidden/system directory so you would need to change some settings to even see it. Easiest fix is to put "\Recovery" into your exclusion filter.

Well I said to exclude "\Recovery" not "G:\Recovery"
The easiest way would be to run a compare, find that "Recovery" folder in the compare window, right-click it, exclude from the context menu that pops up

"Full path to relative path" detection and conversion has been added for the next FFS release: viewtopic.php?t=9225#p34808

Plus: "\Recovery\" was added to the default exclusion list (factory default).
