--reset-delta stopped many folders because path to file cannot be found

Hello,

I used --reset-deltas command, because i wanted to get rid of device stuck in sync issue. The initial problem is still there and worse, now many folders stopped working because of folder path missing:

Paradoxically, in the UI it shows folder paths existing:

I have the suspicion, only those folders stopped working that were shared with devices that were not online at the time.

What to do?

Should I simply remove folders and re-add them? Should I bring ALL devices online at the same time, then run --reset-deltas again? - Will be hard, because one device is very remote. Maybe I would have to unshare this device.

Additionally, my device stuck in sync problem is still there. The cause of the stuck in sync is because:

  1. Original device 1 synced with one device 2, but had not yet been synced with other devices yet. This sync was done in older version of Syncthing: 18.x or 19.x
  2. Original device 1 broke physically. (Hardware issue)
  3. Device 2 tries to sync file to other devices without success.
  4. File + folder, which causes stuck in sync was deemed unnecessary and manually deleted from all devices wherever I could find it. It does not exist anywhere, except Syncthing somehow still “believes” it’s there.
