I created a site in VSD a few years back, I've been having a bit PC clearout, and appear to have lost some of my site files, the home page is missing! I haven't published, so the site is still there, is there anything I can do? What does 'sync' do?

Janet, recent versions of VSD create a back up file during upload. Check your server to see if you have one.
If not, don't use Sync since you're missing some of the files, it wouldn't be able to get back into sync what isn't there any more.
You could also just recreate the home page. Go to your existing files and insert backgrounds and graphic elements. If you have the same menu on all pages, copy the code from another existing page. Go to the site online and copy/paste the text. Copy and save any photos.
