Workgroup, contents not 'syncing' (I guess)
I have my desktop and my notebook on, of course, the same workgroup and they're fully shared (whole drives)... everything, to my best recollection, had been working without a hitch (nearly two years)... but apparently recently a fair few files simply aren't showing up. Specifically, a PDF I just went in on the notebook to grab from the desktop's "downloads" folder (per usual), one that was downloaded just this previous evening too. However, it's not just that file that isn't there. It's about half of all of them, of all different types. Really odd thing is that I see plenty of other PDFs in there, so it's not just limited to certain file types. Why I'm thinking this is a 'syncing' issue (or similar; don't exactly know). Then again, what's even more strange, is it doesn't appear to be just with more recent files... fair few 'older' ones aren't showing up, either.
What I'm really wondering at this point, is if this hotfix is applicable? Or is there a better solution?
All in all, I'd really hate to have to resort to USB drive/SD transfers again... lol.
Admittedly, that "downloads" folder currently has 374 items, and not all small of size either... but then, I can be fairly certain, it's had more before, and again to my best recollection, without problems...
