I will say, since I accidently messed with those file permissions, the files are syncing between any computer and the non-working computer very quickly...almost seamlessly as it should. Just curious why I cannot get rid of those last "5327 files" syncing.

Thanks. I think I started out around 15K....which was like that for more than a week or so, maybe several weeks....then, with some modifying files/folders and then later DB folder property permissions, the number went all the way up to 97K....and then dropped to 5,327 this morning...and has not changed one bit. Since the DB folder permission modification, DB showed some majorly quick syncing.....and continues to syncing to/from that computer immediately.
