So I ran a mirror backup yesterday. After checking, and got a warning indicating that the size of one of the backed-up files as listed in the fkc file didn't match the original.
Looking at that file in both locations verifies this. The original is 32kb while the backup, in the destination folder is 19kb. Interestingly, the backed-up file opens w/ no trouble, but this concerns me nonetheless.

Hi,
Please run again the backup and see if you still have the problem.

I ran it again (using the backup that I had saved). I got no errors nor warnings, but the undersized file (in the destination) remains undersized compared to the original.
Ran it a 3rd time---no change.

Hi,
Please use Beyond Compare or another comparison tool to see the difference between those two files.
