Your question was implied which is slightly unusual. Most people would say "Can FFS do this"

The information you want is probably in the docs here

I guess you need to select "two way" synch - creates, updates and deletes flow in ...

Gigabyte put out a new BIOS with the latest 0x12B microcode and I installed it but the machine crashed 3 hours later when it was doing absolutely nothing so it's going back to the shop for hopefully a brand new CPU.

Is it possible that the 0x12C microcode update will stop my machine from crashing and the CPU doesn't actually need to be replaced and isn't actually damaged?

Looks like you have to enable the USB event

In Event Viewer (eventvwr) under Applications and Services Logs › Microsoft › Windows › DriverFrameworks-UserMode\Operational, right-click on Operational and select Enable Log.

Use google drive. You can map any folder on your Windows machine to google drive - right click => sync or backup this folder, or just use your local G drive. There's a G drive app for android.

Still getting crashes. It seems that the Intel CPU problems can affect non gaming PCs that aren't overclocked so now I'm gonna have to wait for the Intel 0x12B microcode fix to be available for the Gigabyte MB I have and hope the shop I bought it from are willing to replace the CPU.

Got another blue screen crash when I did a FFS compare, same bugcheck code. windbg shows the call stack is almost identical except for these two lines
FLTMGR!FltIsCallbackDataDirty+0x4bb
FLTMGR!FltRequestFileInfoOnCreateCompletion+0x503
above is latest, the earlier one was

Thanks for the suggestion. I was just about to install windbg when windows decided to crash/ restart for no obvious reason.
So the hardware encrypting one-touch seagate drive has now been disconnected, probably my crashes will stop too.

After running windbg and clicking the analysis link it shows ...

exfat - that is my Samsung USB drive !!! - the seagate is NTFS. Wow, thankyou. FreeFileSync was trying to read the samsung drive when I got the blue screen.

On that web page you linked to, microsoft says this bugcheck does not indicate a problem with the filesystem on the drive but rather that ...

Updating the BIOS and drivers was one of the first things that I did a couple of weeks ago. I doubt if Intel would agree to replace the CPU on this history and I have to trust the shop who built the PC that they fitted a brand new CPU. I suspect it's something to do with the hardware encrypting ...

I got a BSOD crash on win 11 pro tonight at the exact instant that I hit the compare button in freefilesync. There is a bugcheck event in event viewer and the memory.dmp file is 2.8 GB. Do you want me to upload it somewhere?

I have a brand new PC I7 14700K - the variety that was susceptible to ...
