Re: [Question] How to sync junctions, symbolic links and hardlinks?

Syncovery definitely can do it… though I‘d love to see FFS having it implemented.
Syncovery is way slower for me and so I‘m always doing a first run with FFS and then a second one with Syncovery to fix the hardlinks. Meh.

Again the setting in Syncovery you have to apply for each sync profile ...

Re: [Question] How to sync junctions, symbolic links and hardlinks?

Doing some search I ended up here... and yeah, it's a pity.
When FreeFileSync says "Symbolic Links" it only seems to mean directory symlinks.

If I use the "direct" setting and create a folder junction that junction is recreated on the other side.

But hardlinked FILES will just be fully copied ...
