...To protect your privacy choose another folder.
well it stinks to have to link like 12 folders one at a time,
it also stinks to have certain folders like downloads made inaccessible.

is stinks that i think this might be android i need to complain too and no where can I find a place to tell them I am unhappy.

So if there is a way to unlock this "feature" that keeps me from using and syncing the folders that I want, then that is my Feature Request, to request access to the sdcard and be granted that access and to use that access. to get access to the onboard internal storage and do the same.

Currently my setup is to ignore all, then reinclude the folders I want to work with and have them actually sync both ways, it worked for a long time and was glorious, in fact one of my setups, created before this cerflufle still works, but the sd card doesn't cause the old one died and the new one is different enough to prevent the old settings from taking.

so, what can be done?

I suppose I should share I found a way around this: Not sure if it's a good idea but lets say you have /storage/1234-5678/download setup. if you can find the web interface, and advanced, then you can delete the /download part and get the top folder syncing again. when you get back to the app just click the override changes button, and it takes.

now you may have to do other work, i didn't since i just changed the part that was the drive id, and it took off. so if you already had a working sync, and you just need to change the drive id, same method.

so updated feature request, let us just change/edit that info manually in the app, ie type it in on say a long press, instead of going into the folder picker.
