Let us know more and we'll take it from there.
- Hey Walter,
Thank you for your reply. Maybe I moved it instead of copying. But I wasn’t expecting that when I move a library from one folder to another on my Mac it will be cut into peaces and most files get lost.

There were NO events between this event and uploading another file event.

Most likely it wasn't possible to add your entire photo library within that period, hence the conflicts created when the Vault was shut.
