    Help! Error after updating: Synced folder is missing


    Hi all,

    I am a mac guy who recently moved to windows (I have had it with the man from Cupertino). I am very happy so far.

    I just updated this morning to the Creative. After it loaded, I got a message saying A synced folder is missing. Backup and Sync is trying to sync "Desktop" but the folder has either been moved or deleted. It is asking me to Locate it.

    Is it talking about the desktop on my PC or the desktop in Onedrive. OR, it is talking about the Desktop on Google Drive as the second dialog suggests. I am very confused. I have too many desktops.

    Thanks for your help. I am finding this community to be great!

    So I just started using Google Drive recently. I get this same issue every time I update to a different build. So this is definitely a bug on either Microsofts or Google side.
    @JonnyVermont my question to you is if your My Documents, etc are mapped to your Google drive?
    C:\Users\rillo\Google Drive\Documents
    C:\Users\rillo\Google Drive\Pictures
    etc.
