@Ravingoofy, if you don't want more bad "surprises" I advise you to backup your library regularly and especially before big changes.
I use the free SyncToy 2.1 by microsoft for windows.
You set 2 folders and this tool make sure they have exactly the same files.
I recommend to use its ECHO feature not the sync (echo is a "one way" sync)
When you run it regularly It looks for changes from the last time it run (file modifications, new files, renames, deletes) and doesn't copy files which haven't been changed since last time.
Update:
N.B. - if you run SynToy I advise you to run a tool which keeps your computer from locking up or falling asleep . I use a free tool called Caffeine.
