I have multiple folders I've downloaded from MEGA. I just got done downloading a folder and when i went to check the folder for duplicates using Awesome Duplicate Finder by dragging the folder into the program instead of the folder path showing it shows my entire Downloads folder. When i try and drag the folder into a different duplicate finding program it just doesn't work. When i tried to change the name of the folder it says the folder is no longer located in that directory even though I can clearly see it, and open it and open the files in the folder. I have multiple folders that were downloaded from MEGA where this is happening. Does anyone know what is going on? This is only happening with stuff I download from MEGA. Also I just checked and when i right click the folder and select properties it shows the folder size as 0 bytes, yet if i just hover my mouse pointer over the folder it shows as 17GB, which it should be.
