    Thanks for the additional information and the screenshot too jlmoore314 - much appreciated.

    Have you tried quitting the app and relaunching it and/or logging out of your account(s) and then back in since you first noticed this?

    If it's still stuck at the same number of files, can you try fixing your hardlinks and permissions and let us know how it goes?

Quitting and relaunching hadn't helped, but today logging out and back in worked this time! Thank you.
