[Quote] That would be the sensible thing to do.

look at the erroe you get vs the error i get ..probably symlink cannot be copyed from windows to nix: [Quote] [URL]

IMAGINE that every folder has 50+GB of data when combined Time and processing power is wasted. Can you forget for a moment the Last sync date, because i have cloned this config. Jo…

[URL] RTS doesn't work when monitoring a Google Drive location. You can have RTS monitor just the local directory, it is up to you to determine if that is sufficient for your use. …

Correct, the limits have be graciously removed as of now [URL] Just a note, it does not explicitly state one way or the other, but Zenju is awesome

Since you aren't the developers at all Plerry and xCSxXenon (I don't know if you are programmers at all) I won't address you anymore. I apologize to the actual programmer @Zenju. T…

Thanks!!

[Quote] Having the client in Italian I didn't understand what "starred" meant: on the client in Italian you have to enter the "Organizza" menu and then "Aggiungi a Speciali". I see…

He probably extracted the "portable" installation into C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync

@dpeteual: Why literally repeat exactly what is [URL]?

That's a great solution then if someone doesn't want to keep all their files locally. Thanks xCSxXenon :)

I don't know a good alternative that could be used instead of the MAC. Unfortunately you are one of only a handful of people for which the current MAC address-based checking doesn'…

[Quote] Shouldn't matter since the action icon shown by FFS indicates that the files exist only on the right side. It must be something with the paths, as always lol

If you are renaming/moving files, FFS can detect that and avoid duplicating the file on the destination. FFS isn't a duplicate finder though, so make sure you are renaming/moving t…

And I was dumb - I didn't realise filters persisted between sessions. I was on [Last Session] (the default) and it remembered some irrelevant filters from an older session I'd had …

[Quote] Exactly! "file.txt" and " file.txt" will be shown as a renamed file on a single row rather than two rows (1. exists left only, 2. exist right only), in the same way that "F…

Still not what you're wanting then, i.e., directly from within the GUI, but if you still start from a batch file, & you can do the BEFORE before, & then you can pass the wanted .ff…

Hello all. I'm sure this has been listed somewhere on this forum, but I couldn't find it, so forgive me if everyone knows this now. When you minimize the Status window of the FreeF…

Thank you!

BTW, I realize this won't help most people here, but if it helps anyone, FreeFileSync supports dark themes quite well in Windows 7. You just create a dark theme for the OS, and Fre…

[Quote] And you're doing this sync with FFS, & you stated that this is between internal drives. That's odd. I take it they are both NTFS formatted? [Quote] Explain that? If you are…

[URL] If you have a GB of RAM free, you should be fine. Files added during the sync won't be transferred by FFS until another comparison/sync is performed. You could put put them i…

Your beta version works. Thanks for the fast response.

[Quote] You may want to never use the internet or literally any service in the modern world if you are world about your email address and name being saved other places

That WakeMeOnLan utility from Nirsoft is the one I currently use with the internal IP address of the NAS specified. Could this and the FreeFileSync batch config file be combined to…

There are ways to do this, but not easily. FFS is a sync utility and your scenario is really no longer a sync process. You can set each subfolder as a source and point them all to …

I also would like that feature, comparison using only filenames, be added. That could help circumvent some bugs such as modification time being altered to current time when transfe…

xCSxXenon, That's exactly what it took to get it to work, thanks! I first tried just adding "exit" as a second line in the batch file, but it never got to that line. But using "sta…

BulkFileChanger did the trick, thanks, therube! Once I set the missing modification dates to the creation date, FFS was able to sync the files without any errors.

Thanks for clarifying.

> Basically, does it monitor a folder and if there is any change, it would make THAT change but not have to scan/monitor the folder to do so? No! As also described in the [URL], RT…

This would be very useful

hello Plerry, thanks for your answer. a) [Source] => [Target] (with subdirectories) no results but b) 1) [Source]\Sub1 => [Target]\Sub1 2) [Source]\Sub2 => [Target]\Sub2 1) [Source…

[Quote] Thanks Plerry I'm not familiar with the technical terms but thanks for rewording it... in a way that may be more easily executed by the Developers! From my user perspective…

Disable "Use database files to detect changes"

When I say "OneDrive Program" of course I am referring to the application that installed in the operating system allows synchronizing local folders with the Microsoft account. My q…

I have the same problem Cannot delete file "E:\Inetpub\xxxx\sync.ffs_db".
