Moving a Synced Folder on Windows 10

[Napper]

I have just completed a rather large sync setup (several hundred gigs in 5 shared folders) and am now realizing the folders that I used should be in a different path on the machine in Question. On my Mac (Pro License) - no Problem. Drag, drop, done. On that Windows 10 machine (Free License) - no can do. I followed the instructions in this help-article

https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/205450655-Can-I-move-or-rename-a-syncing-folder-

But it doesn't work. If I rename a folder Sync 2.4 will not pic up on the change. I cannot open the folder in sync by clicking on the name of the share and it doesn't sync anything but it also doesn't give out a warning "folder disappeared" or similar. It just sits there and waits. If I mouse over the share in the Resilio Interface it shows me the old path after a second of waiting.

If I move the folder back to the original location everything is peachy again.

What can I do? If I remove the folder in the Resilio App, move the folder in Explorer, Connect to the Folder again and point to the not emtpy path I get a warning that the folder ist not emtpy and I am a bit worried what will happen after that.

Is there maybe a hidden text-file where I can change the path name?

Any help is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Napper

Napper,

Hm, no problems on my Win10. Did you try restarting Sync after renaming and moving?

Nothing will happen. Sync will just rescan the files. Go ahead and add it.
