Update 15.2.2 deletes 48 of my local folders

When I update to 15.2.2 48 of my local folders disappear. Is this a bug? or is there some new filter which excludes certain folders?

I have reverted to a backup and re-updated to confirm the problem consistently.

This is preventing me from updating to supernova. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Update:

A workaround was to create a new subfolder (named LocalFolders/Updated) and move all the local folders to the new subfolder.

Then do the update.

Moving all the folders back to the root of the local folders is a pain because you can no longer select multiple folders. But it worked around the issue for me.

115 doesn't appear to pick up the indexes which are in the localfolders/inbox.sbd folder in the profiles folder. The solution is to move them into the root of the localfolders directory so 115 picks them up.
