Importing \ Synchronizing folder imports the entire drive

Hi,

I had trouble synchronizing a folder in lightroom. When I synchronize the folder (I checked that its name appears in the synchronize dialogue), it also starts to scan my entire drive for photos. This is pretty troublesome, since I have a lot of files on my computer, making it basically impossible to complete the task of importing.

I tried removing the folder and adding it again, however I encounter the same bug while importing.

I'm using Microsoft Windows 10, and the most updated Lightroom Classic CC.

I've searched the forum for a similar problem, and found an issue "Synchronize folder is adding images and folders from other drives" mentioning something similar, however that solution didn't work for me.

Now I'm basically unable to use the software, since this folder I'm trying to synchronize contains all of my photos.

Sincerely,

Dolev
