### Bug description
There are too many files being checked before it starts syncing. Surely we could start syncing after it finds the first file?


### Steps to reproduce
1. Open the Sync Dialog on Windows client.
2. Look at how many files it is checking.
3. Compare this to how many files Windows says we have.
### Expected behavior
When opening the Sync dialog it should only check the number of files I have, not more. Ideally I'd even see it transferring before it finishes checking, and sync files in parallel.
