FreeFileSync Forum

There was a bug in 13.2 if I remember correctly that caused this behaviour for me when syncing to my NAS.
Other users reported it as well and 13.3 fixed the issue for us.
Which version are you experiencing this issue with?

Thank your for another great release (13.4) and another vote for darkmode for us oled and big screen users.

Microsoft provides support for developers on how to approach dark mode implementation to apps. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/desktop/modernize/apply-windows-themes But one will need to think about maintaining two UI color schemes moving forward or to implement the method that detect...

When I posted to this thread 3 days ago there have already been 3.5k views on this topic. 3 days later we are hitting 4k. While I understand there are a lot of priorities in terms of feature requests to FFS, this is already one of the most viewed topics that is still receiving regular updates and ha...

Just found another thread which did not come up with my search for dark mode -> calling it dark theme.

Dark Mode / Theme +1

Dear FFS fans, there are many ways to copy and syncronize data, yet we are here with FFS for its simplicity and reliability. One thing I would love to see though is a dark mode to be able to bring the intensity of the UI down to what the rest of my systems look like. Glaring into the bright white of...

Hello xCSxXenon, in that case I have to thank you even more for voluntary providing your support to forum visitors. Your initial tip from post #2 of reverting to a lower version to check if this would change the behavior was so helpful and pointed in the right direction so quickly. Also thank you fo...

For me this is the first time I did interact with the forum for an actual issue that is not only cosmetic but decides wether I could use FFS productively or not. I am pretty impressed with the process implemented by FFS with a moderator (xCSxXenon) pre-qualifying the issue and shortly after (Zenju) ...

I am still running on 13.2 Beta as is was correctly syncing the dates after testing. As this is the first time I am in this position with freefilesync I also have two remaining questions. How long does it usually take after identifying such an issue until it is rolling into a stable release 13.2? Di...

Hello Zenju, thank you for the explanation and for getting back so quickly. I did one more confirmation run with 13.1 to make sure the issue is currently present and it was. Running the same sync with 13.2 beta is resolving the issue. As dennisb is pointing out syncing against a NAS etc might be inv...

Sounds like a BUG @Zenju Anything you can think of that would lead to this behavior? Maybe another weird Apple thing since that is all too common? Please keep in mind that sr21ffs reporting the issue in general discussion and varez in this thread are reporting the issue on macos. But I am having th...

Thinking about this maybe it is possible to turn this bug into a feature of selecting if original dates/times should be synced or if sync time should be used.
I could see a use case for each one of those scenarios if optional.

Hello sr21ffs, I just replied in the help section of this forum as I am having the same issue that file dates are set to the sync date/time which was not formerly the case. The post is called: File "modified" date/time changed I explain what testing I did and that FreeFileSync did not have...

Hello All, I came here because I am facing the same issue on FreeFileSync 64- Bit 13.1 on Windows. So far synced files would have the same timestamps as the source files. This is true for: - date created - date modified - last accessed Today I noticed that the target files incorrectly receive the sa...
