How are you adding files to favorites? If you are using the button in the top bar, that button does not add files to favorites, it is used to filter the favorite files in the current folder. To add a file to favorites, you need to right-click on the file you want to add and add it from there.

Oh, so it wasn't self-explanatory. I assumed I had to click the button to select my favorites in a collection. If I do it the way you describe, it works.

All the options in the top bar are currently for filtering or sorting the page.

To modify files, the contextual (right-click) menu is used, for example, to add labels, add to favorites, mark as read, etc.
