Syncthing not writing to %localappdata%

I’ve been attempting to set up syncthing such that I could have my Minecraft worlds sync between PC and Android. I gave root permissions to the last build of syncthing-android, and successfully shared my minecraftWorlds folder to my NAS. From there, I attempted to share it with my pc, which is running syncthing 1.29.4. Even after I gave SyncthingServiceAcct full permissions for the target folder “%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\games\com.mojang\minecraftWorlds”, It displays that the folder is synced, but does not write to the folder. I’m not quite sure where to go from here.

This is my log after a restart, and attempting to share the folder from both my phone and my NAS

The log contains info about two different devices trying to connect. It’s not quite consistent, but the folder seems to not have been accepted on the device where you grabbed the log. Then again it is added locally.

Please provide more details on what is shared with which device (screenshots from the GUI help a lot) and explain what you were doing while that log was recorded.
