files & folders disappearing

Starting yesterday, folders started disappearing from my library across all
of my computers. They appear to be systematically (alphabetically) being
removed my library.

I have seen some discussion about some sort of server upgrade. Could this
be related?

Where could the files be going?

Re: files & folders disappearing

Hi Loren,
We are not currently tracking any problem that resembles this behavior.
Are the files being removed from a library you share between your devices or
with someone else?
Also, could you please send me your log file?

The file is located at:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\FolderShare\logs\

Thanks,
Anton

Re: files & folders disappearing

Anton-

I'm sending you the log file now.

The library is actively utilized by six computers that are used by a couple
of people. There is the potential for someone to delete a folder and have it
removed from the other system with this set-up, but this sort of pattern of
missing folders doesn't seem like a user accidentally deleting a folder.

Hopefully the log file will help to shed some light on what's happening.
FYI- The "view activity" option doesn't show any activity.

Thanks.
