Summary
On Windows, recursive deletion callbacks used absolute
\-separated paths, while journal entries use relative/-separated paths. The old prefix comparison therefore failed. Successfully deleted items could remain in the journal and later be misinterpreted as user deletions, causing unintended remote deletion.This fix normalises callback paths with Qt, converts them to validated journal-relative paths before cleanup, and uses component-aware directory matching.
