Lightroom -- store a copy of all originals not copying all photos (my backups are incomplete!)

Copied

Hi,

I've noticed my "local originals copy" file count was much lower than my cloud storage count. When I investigate I see that entire date ranges are missing in the local copy directory. However, if I browse to the "missing" photo in lightroom it then does appear in the folder after a short delay (I'm assuming to download).

 

Lightroom claims all of my photos are synced and up-to-date, but obviously something is wrong.

 

I've tried uninstalling lightroom and deleting the AppData directory to start fresh, with a re-download of all of my photos but the issue is still occuring.

 

How can I be sure all of my photos are being locally copied so I can keep a local backup?
