OK, here's my situation. I have a dir that has a bunch of subdirs & files at various levels of nesting on a pair of drives. My goal is to have both be the union of the original set of stuff so that they have exact same contents.

Using the Properties dialog for the 2 drives, both as directly selecting the top node dir folder icon, and as going into the dir and searching for *.*, then selecting the all the files I get for the # of files & dirs:

C: via *.* -> 3826 in 616

H: via *.* -> 3826 in 616

C: via top folder -> 3824 in 616

H: via top folder -> 3819 in 613

If I open the top dir and select all the items (which are all dirs), the value is the same as if I had selected the top folder.

Going into the CMD window and doing dir *.* /w /s (or whatever) gives the same size as per the *.* selection, although for whatever reason, it shows 3X the # of dirs. Confused | :confused:

So the good news it that everything seems to be copied (the total size is also the same) properly. However, I like to use the Properties dialog to do a quick check of the # of files, dir & size to make sure that a copy has been done properly. Here, the copy has been done properly, but it still does not show when accessing the Properties via the folder icon, and thus doing this check will involve a big PITA to get something that should be simple. Mad | :mad:

I have no idea how to fix this! Confused | :confused:
