    Launch FG, on the Splash screen click the Explorer icon.
    It will open a Windows Explorer window.
    Click in the address bar and copy that path.
    Paste it here - you can remove or obfuscate your name.

    Or compare it to mine below:

    C:\Users\Damian\AppData\Roaming\SmiteWorks\Fantasy Grounds

    Nope, not pointing to Google Drive.

    Ok that is good.
    I dont know whey your files disappeared- its definitely not normal behavior.
    Good to see you are doing periodic backups.

    @ppostel your third screenshot in post #1 shows that you're using a cloud sync/backup service on your live FG files - maybe OneDrive? Doing any sync/backup while FG is running is not recommended as it can cause issues with corrupting FG data because it tries to sync live data that FG is using which can cause issues - just like you're seeing here.

    I was writing to check if they had ran a backup while FG was running and also to make a point for others reading this post.
