Hi TerryBen - That doesn't sound right. When you Select Sync in a SharePoint library, you should only see folders within that Sync location.

If you sync a folder in a document library, you should see the files and subfolders of that folder. What do you see when select the OneDrive cloud on your taskbar and then Settings. When you select the Account (selected by default) tab you should see the locations that you are syncing. You can select Choose folders to view, select\de-select folders within each location. You can also select Stop Sync to stop syncing a particular location. If you sync another document library, you should see another entry under Company name for that library. Is that what you see?
