Re: FreeFileSync - New feature request - select pairs to sync -

You’re all very helpful, and I’m thankful.
But, once again, you must admit these solutions are both intricate, time-consuming and definitely not user-friendly !
I found a software better suited to my needs.... and my level of expertise !
I'll keep an eye on FFS, in case things change ! :)

@xCSxXenon

Thanks again for your help.
But you have to admit that this is not very user friendly !
I’m used to just having to click, in my list of pairs, on the files I want to sync at any given time.

I’ll stick to SyncToy on my laptop for now, with Windows 11 Pro 24H2 it works fine.
On my PC ...

FreeFileSync - New feature request - select pairs to sync -

I would like to be able, at any given time, to select which pairs to sync from my listed ones, as I could do with SyncToy.
With FFS, if I click on the minus sign, the pair is completely removed, so that when I do want to sync it I have to re-create it. This is both unpractical and time-consuming.

@xCSxXenon -
Yes, but when I click the minus icon it does not only exclude the pair, it removes it completely - so that when I need to sync this particular pair I have to create it again, this is very unpractical and ridiculously time-consuming

Re: Don’t sync all the pairs each time

Thanks xCSxXenon, I had tried this but could not find a way to exclude a folder pair.
Besides, I do not want to always exclude certain folder pairs, using '_' is not particularly fast and easy.
In SyncToy I just selected "all folder pairs" and unselected those I wanted to exclude...
I switched to ...

Don’t sync all the pairs each time

Hello
I’ve been using SyncToy for many years and appreciated the possibility to select the pairs I wanted to sync at any given time.
Is there a way to do that with FreeFileSync ?
