Bug description

I am currently using the Nextcloud Desktop Client version 33.0.5; I also installed and tested version 33.0.4. It appears that I am currently experiencing issues with "Virtual Files" on Windows 11. I have a large folder containing many files—which I configured (or rather, re-configured) as a Virtual Files folder—that displays the files in Windows Explorer but only synchronizes them when they are opened. If I select "Always keep" for specific files or folders, nothing gets downloaded; this applies to a folder totaling approximately 1,000 GB. I am encountering this same issue on another Windows 11 PC using the exact same versions of the Nextcloud client. However, after downgrading the client to version 4.0.8, synchronization seems to be working again, and the folder is downloading completely.

Steps to reproduce

Create or Use a VFS Share, Right Click => Always Keep Files(Folder or Files)

Expected behavior

Files/Folders should start downloading/syncing again.
