Re: Bug still present since version 6.3

Currently there is the workaround to just start manually via Windows Explorer, so this is not a showstopper issue. It is a showstopper issue for almost half a million users stuck on 6.2, that's almost a fifth of your total users http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/FreeFileSync%20Port...

Currently there is the workaround to just start manually via Windows Explorer, so this is not a showstopper issue. I suport a number of friends and family who are not computer literate and don't know how to start programs manually via Windows Explorer, let alone start FFS with an ffs_batch config f...

Keep Folder timestamps

I have used Igor Green's shareware Synchronize It! for many years but since finding FFS at PortableApps.com I have been recommending it to friends and family. It has one limitation for me though.
