FreeFileSync Forum

Sorry, because of my poor English I thought your "first pair" was referring to my first example. I hadn't really thought about using two different couplers for the same directory.
I was looking for the right syntax or formula to do it with just one but that is perfectly fine, thank you

First of all, thank you for your help. Let's focus on the last case. That's the one I'm interested in.

If I just put /subfolder11/subsubfolder21/ in the local include filter, I certainly include "subsubfolder21" and exclude all the rest of "subfolder11" content, which is ok but it's just a minimal ...

Sorry I completely got the question wrong. I tried to summarize my case with a completely wrong example. I'll do it again.

Mirror synchronization between folder A and folder B. I want all files and folders in A to be included but with one important exception. In A/subfolder11/ I have a lots of ...

Hi, I'm having trouble creating the right include/exclude filter.

Let's say I'm mirror synchronizing the contents of folder A into folder B. Inside A there is a lot of stuff and I want to define with the filters what to include or exclude. Let's say I put in the "include" filter the folders ...

Here I am, as suggested on the rclone forum I needed to add "-o UserName=frenk" to the end of the NSSM arguments which then became: --config C:\Users\frenk\AppData\Roaming\rclone\rclone.conf --log-file C:\Users\frenk\rclone-log.txt mount Onedrive: O: --vfs-cache-mode full -o UserName=frenk . No ...

Ok, I created the topic "No file creation allowed in OneDrive rclone service" in rclone help and support forum

...Perhaps it's time to address these questions to the rclone forum. I have been asking rclone things on the FreeFileSynch forum for weeks.
For gratitude for your help, if I solve I will come back here and write the solution

One last thing sorry.... I just discovered that inside the rclone drive I can paste what I want, I can create a new folder,... but windows explorer doesn't let me create new files...
What can it depend on?
If I right click inside the main folder of the rclone drive I only have available: create new ...

YEEEEAAAAAAHHHH I did it!!! We did it!!! Thank you very much LeoW, it's all thanks to you!!!
Now the drive is mounted by rclone as a service and is perfectly visible in both windows explorer and FFS.
Thank you again for your patience...

Unfortunately, there must be something wrong....
I did everything as you said, I can install the service but if I try to start it I get this:
https://i.postimg.cc/h4NLc8fT/error.png
Translated is: "unable to start MyOnedriveService on local Computer. The service returned no errors. An internal ...

Okay but since I have to mount the drive at windows startup by starting it as a service, if I understand correctly, I will have to create one service that mounts a normal drive, which I can then see in explorer, and a second one that mounts a drive with administrator permissions which I will not see ...

I'm really sorry but I understood almost nothing.
I am forced to run as administrator both FFS and the .bat, how do I make that drive visible also in Windows Explorer?

Thank you very much indeed, you are helping me more than I hoped!
I just need to solve one thing before I go ahead and install the service because I keep seeing strange things...
I told you a few days ago that the only way I could see a rclone drive in FreeFileSync was to have it previously created ...

Yes thank you I was just studying the information on that page and was undecided whether to follow the first method with WinFsp or the second method with NSSM. But since you suggest the second one I will try that

No problem, I am satisfied. All I need now is to be able to install rclone as a service and I'm good to go. Thank you very much for your precious help.

Okay now I know. To allow FreeFileSync runned as administrator to see a rclone drive you must have created its "config" by a terminal runned as administrator too. After it can be mounted by terminal or a .bat file without running them as administrator. Actually I see that starting an rclone mount ...

At the moment it doesn't seem to work, I launched windows powershell as administrator and ran rclone mount Onedrive: O: --vfs-cache-mode full --no-console
(same command I'm having windows run via .bat file at system startup) but nothing happens.
If I start powershell in normal mode and run the same ...

Ok thank you very much I didn't know I had to add "full" before "mount". The first difference I noticed is that the mounted rclone drive no longer appears as network drive but as standard system drive like "C"

In the meantime I solved the mystery, or rather, I figured out why my FreeFileSync still ...

Update: I just created a network drive to Onedrive with Rclone. I don't know why I wanted to go the hard way. The drive works perfectly but I just ran into two insignificant little tiny laughable problems:
- first: FreeFileSync doesn't see the drive created by rclone.
-second: The drive ...

Yes I think you are right... Also because unlike you I can't get the tutorial method to work.
Now forgive this last and even more stupid question:
Does the drive that will be created by Raidrive or Rclone need these applications to remain installed? Or do they simply take care of writing a drive ...

Thank you very much! In this case I have no problem and Raidrive seems to be a very good solution. Maybe the only downside is that, if I understand, it's not free. In case I can try with Rclone.

Some time ago I had also found solutions like this to manually map a network drive to Onedrive directly ...

The app natively supports Google and SFTP that's all!

OneDrive Must be done using other means as discussed above.

Raidrive will be the easiest I think.

It's sole purpose in life is to mount a drive to Microsoft OneDrive and other cloud services. OneDrive is included for free.

Thank you very ...

Thank you all very much for the solutions. I'm going to experiment this afternoon.
Just the last stupid question: so is it really impossible to connect to the onedrive cloud directly in FreeFileSync without first creating that virtual local drive/folder?

Hi, with FreeFileSync I would like to synchronize a folder on my Onedrive cloud with one in my pc, without using the windows built-in sync service at all.
The thing is I want to be able to sync only and when I want to and not automatically like windows does.
I want to totally disable Onedrive as a ...

... Being an administrator of the PC is not the same as running things as administrator. If you aren't aware of this, you shouldn't be touching permissions.

I trust you, in fact I had no intention of changing any kind of permission. I just wanted to synchronize a folder. The only thing I ...

I am the administrator, I am sure. In settings > account is confirmed

First of all, thank you for your time. As you can see here
https://i.postimg.cc/rwHsn5yy/2022-12-11-17-00-35-Impostazioni-avanzate-di-sicurezza-per-MPC-HC.jpg
that folder has "Administrators (MYPCNAME\Administrators)" as the owner which seems to have full control.
I am the only administrator on ...

Hi, If I launch the program normally as soon as the comparison starts I get this error:
https://i.postimg.cc/mZydVnrw/2022-12-11-02-35-29-Warning.png
If I click "ignore" the comparison proceeds. As soon as I start the synchronization the massage pops up again. If I ignore further the ...
