What version are you using? release? current svn?
It scares me, I trust StepSync quite a bit nowadays and I synchronize 
half a terabyte of precious data with ease.

Current SVN head is close to release actually, so if there is a bug, 
high alert. I consider it stable.

do you edit the content in source or target?

No, this is extremely unexpected - given the sensitivity, StepSync is 
programmed to delete *only* missing things. So essentially if you do not 
flag "Delete items" it shouldn't delete anything.
Update Source instead means to mirror things from target to source, 
otherwise actions are performed exclusively on target.

Did you inspect the output in the log? what does it say about ficC.txt?
