Ok, this is a tough one to word, but I'll do my best...
Let's say I set my source to backup my entire C drive...
Let's also say that I have a folder in my root called "hello"...
Now the folder "hello" is just one of many folders in the root of C...
If during my source selection, I just choose C (which then selects all child folders too), if I ever delete the "hello" directory, GFI is throwing a warning that the "source folder" (in this case, "hello") doesn't exist... It would seem to me that folders can be somewhat dynamic, existing one day and not existing the next, I wouldn't think that should throw a warning...
For reference, I'm using "Stacked"...
Am I crazy, or am I on to something?

The warning does not stop you from completing the task. Am I right?

Yes Dumitru, you are right.
I'm just wondering what the benefit of, say a year from now, a warning that's 3 pages long because 3,000 folders have been removed.
Or are the warnings a 1 time only occurrence and you're checking against the previous backup only?
