Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a folder in TB
2. delete it, but error message occurs
3. when TB is booted up again, and the deleted folders are there for a second or two, then they disappear.



Whilst I am at it, I really would like a facility to state that all sub-folders, within a folder, are to be synced for off-line.

Right now, I have to go to each sub-folder and stipulated that.

However, when we're dealing with many dozens of folders and sub-folders, that is time-consuming, and we can forget which folders are to be set to be offline and which are not.

One issue per bug report, please. You can set offline sync for several folders at a time in account settings -> offline -> ... using shift-click to select in the list and spacebar to toggle. bug 221005
