Re: move rather then copy

I would also vote for an option to move data from A to B (i.e. 1. copy data to B, then delete source files from A). In my syncronisation with the suggested workaround I do get a warning message in the log-file because I sync FROM A in the first folder-pair and then TO A in the second folder pair. Th...

Re: Linux Gnome-Schedule - FFS batchfile needs to be executable

yes, I guess "no output" means suppressing the FFS window, but I don't know for sure either.

Re: Linux Gnome-Schedule - FFS batchfile needs to be executable

sorry for the late reply. I don't know what went wrong, but you're right - it doesn't make sense and it was not causing my problems. I know found the real problem. In the current version (2.1.1) of Gnome-Schedule one can not only select "no output", but also x-window. For me the "no o...

Linux Gnome-Schedule - FFS batchfile needs to be executable

I had some difficulties scheduling a job on Linux Ubuntu. I used the instructions below, but the job just didn't wanted to start automatically until I found out that one needs to make the FFS-batch file executable. IMO for Linux beginners it would help if that would be mentioned briefly in the FFS-m...

[feature request] "configuration" column in the Overview section

Hi, I have a lot of configurations that I run at once and I would find it nice if there was a seperate column for configurations in the overview section of the UI. So that I know which line belongs to which configuration after I've ran "compare". At the moment there are columns for percent...

Re: how to delay a Windows scheduled FFS batch job?

Thanks. I´ve found out it was a config problem of the Win scheduler. In a desparate attempt to solve the problem I´ve changed an option in the general tab in the Win Scheduler to "Run wheter user is logged on or not" . This will supress the FFS progress Window and run only in the backgroun...

how to delay a Windows scheduled FFS batch job?

The schedule of my FFS batch job on Win 8 does not start properly in the Win 8 scheduled tasks. It starts but no data transfer happening and it hangs in the task list forever with the status "starting". The script is working fine when I execute it manually and I´ve also set up the FFS scri...

Re: Hint for the Scheduling feature

since I´m not a developer I don´t know if I would have a good answer to your questions. I guess you´d have to decide what too much and what is just right. Maybe you can leave aside the button story and put a menu item in "advanced"? There are only 3 entries there. The other suggestion was ...

Re: Hint for the Scheduling feature

Zenju, I think the design idea is good except that the symbol for the batch job in the GUI is not really meaningful to me. Also I´d assume that the term "batch-job" is something that a few rather non-technical users would have problems to interpret. I think when I first started FFS, I´ve n...

Re: Hint for the Scheduling feature

In my experience often the manual is only read when something is not working or one wants to know how a specific feature works. Now I know how to schedule a sync job,thanks. I just wanted to help...

Hint for the Scheduling feature

Hi there, I´m someone who like´s the idea of using a product intuitively and I often read manuals only when I need to read them (maybe like a few other users). I`ve thoughouly examined the FreeFileSync UI / Software by clicking through the menus and came to the conclusion that there is no scheduling...
