FreeFileSync Forum

I'm using nvme ssds now exclusively. Just remember that if your computer doesn't have the internal hardware required to transfer at the faster speeds that these drives are capable of you will not see any advanced performance. I have pcie 3 and 4 in my computers, along with usb-c connectors. My one o...

Perhaps this will be more clear. You need to mount with the mount command your Nas from Samba prior to using free file sync then you can go into free file sync and synchronize whatever you wish to and from the Nas. To mount a share from a NAS running SMB (Server Message Block) using the Samba client...

First make sure you've installed the samba client:

smbclient //remote_machine/share_name -U username

Hi, If I understand correctly, you are synchronizing your Google drive files down to your PC and then synchronizing those files from the default directory to another directory. Then, you are editing files in that alternate directory and then trying to synchronize them back to the default Google Driv...

When using free file sync to access your Google Drive are you doing it through Google Desktop for Windows or are you using the Google function within free file sync?

Whichever way you tried first try it the other way and see if it works.

Go SSD everyone!

I have about 6 new flash drives I'll never use.
SSD is a LOT more expensive, only the SPEED is WORTH IT!

I get under 50 with flash and over 400 with SSD!

What happens speed-wise when you use the Google Drive For Desktop software to copy/sync/backup the files.

Rather than having FFS create its own connection to the server, use the pre-existing connection that you have using the Google Drive software for Windows.

If you are using Windows 10/11 with Onedrive from Microsoft, you have a folder mounted to your Onedrive. This is how to access Onedrive with FFS. You should be able to navigate to your OneDrive folders from within the software. You can "Map a Drive letter" using webdav if you like also. An...

FFS knows nothing about s3 storage.

You likely need to mount the s3 storage using an open source cloud mounting program.

Can you please clarify your question?

Are you wondering about FFS support for S3 cloud servers?

If so, you would need to use special software designed to mount folders and map drives to S3 servers. There are both free/paid options.

Then, you can use FFS.

Not by itself. You'll need to either connect to onedrive using the built in onedrive software that comes with Windows, or you can get a free/paid cloud mounting utility program that supports onedrive. One other option is to connect to Onedrive using Webdav. Not the greatest, but it works for some fo...

Plerry, GREAT idea! Wish I had thought about it. It sounds logical and should work. It's better to have the mail server use a server-side forwarding rule (I do this in Gmail) so it's always active. Not depending on Outlook client for example to forward the email only after the app is run on the clie...

Have you tried mounting the webdav server directly from windows file Explorer? You can do that too. To connect to a WebDAV server using Windows File Explorer, follow these steps: 1. **Open File Explorer:** Open the File Explorer in Windows. You can do this by pressing the `Win + E` keys on your keyb...

The base version of raidrive is free and can mount webdav as a local drive letter.

This will enable you to use FFS with webdav.

Raidrive is a cloud mounting utility.

Dear Flowers4, if you have the patience I should very much like screenshots. Both what I have to do in preparation with my Android device and my PC Here are a couple of screen shots. The default port will be 2222 Step one is to create a user on the user page. I have an arrow pointing to it. After y...

Yes. I was referring to a distribution list. If you know how to write scripts, you can send email to more than one user from the command line. I don't think FFS lets you do more than one. The program I use is MSMTP (free) from here: https://marlam.de/msmtp/ Here is another method using only Powershe...

Simple,

Send to a list instead. Does your mail server let you create mailing lists?

thank you guys, but I give up (SFTP server is far too complicated for me, and after I installed the cx file explorer on my Android tablet I still connect to my PC with mtp) WAIT!! If you have Cx File Explorer, you have traditional FTP server. 1. Go to Network Tab 2. Click yellow Access from Network...

You can look for a cloud mount utility program. There are several companies that make software that does nothing other than mount cloud drives. Cloudmounter is one that supports FTPS. Not free though. When I saw their .net domain extension I thought they might be open source, only they're not. There...

I think xCSxXenon covered it with his link.

My recommendation is:

Try following the instructions for setting up the SFTP server from Google Play.
Here is the FREE app in Google Play that I use:
