What does IDrive mean by "missing" files ?

.
I'm trying to understand this IDrive option:

- Select percentage in the 'Notify as 'Failure' if the total files missing for backup is more than 5% of the total files backed up'

Could someone please explain that option in the following example:

- Assume I have 100 files on my computer
- IDrive says the total files "missing for backup" is 7 files. So IDrive backs up only 93 files.
- Therefore the job will be marked as "Failure".

How can IDrive find those 7 files, and then say "Sorry - I can't back them up."?

Thanks
.

I believe this refers to files that you have selected for backup, but which subsequently are not found when executing - e.g., you moved or deleted them.
