**Sync Confirmation Dialogue** All three sync actions now show a summary sheet before any files are moved — file count, total size, and active filter warnings. No more accidental syncs. **Folder counts refresh automatically** The item count and folder size shown next to each selection now updates after every Compare and Sync operation. **Safer text diff viewer** Files over 1 MB are now loaded line-by-line (up to 10,000 lines) to prevent memory spikes. An orange banner appears when a file has been truncated. **Bug fixes** - Fixed multiple sync operations running simultaneously when "Backup before syncing" was enabled - Fixed log pane appearing empty after the first compare on launch - Fixed backup failing on iCloud "Files On Demand" folders - Fixed "Failed to move to bin" errors for new files during one-way sync - Fixed iCloud Drive badge not appearing on some folder configurations - Fixed volume kind badges being clipped off-screen at normal window sizes - Fixed log timestamp wrapping onto two lines - Disk space check on network volumes now logs a warning instead of silently skipping - All alert strings are now fully localised
