Hence that side is blank.

The "item" is blank, but a mouseover of that blank item does show a *potential* file name, to be, if you will (& even if not particularly appropriate, like with an Update, you still see the same on a "blank" spot on the left side).

(Also noted here, viewtopic.php?t=12080#p47364.

And your picture link doesn't look to be valid.
You can upload it here, directly.)

é shouldn't be an issue (to FFS).

So maybe it is something the way that https://www.mailo.com/ is presenting that particular (or similar ?) characters (which you wouldn't really expect to be an issue, but...).

Thinking that ROBOCOPY should be able to do it ? might be able to ? similar in the way it can be used to "re-date" changed directory dates.

Do a search here for ROBOCOPY & see if it gives you some ideas.

Pretty sure find will find hidden (& links of various types, & ...).

That said, thinking your FFS Compare includes directories not included in your find .

In general I'd agree with that - except, for me, it shows that (RTS) is still alive - i.e., that it has not stopped, for some reason.

As it is, I (remotely) monitor (actually, every once in a while I'll take note of) the LOGS file directory, & if I don't see a currently dated log file in there ...

So, just what was the issue?

At the least, c:\bachrun, is not correct.
If nothing else, you'd need some sort of > in there, c:\>batchrun.bat ?

Anything every come of that google search?
(Some, perhaps much of the highest hits are outright wrong, btw.)

I've got something I came up with, but I'm not even certain that is correct, In order to "correctly" benchmark, YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE.

Have you confirmed that particular file pairs are in fact, identical?

Might something have added meta-data to the files (without changing date/size)?

I'll suspect it's something with the setup of (different) shells, something along the lines of:

You'll have to have the key, in advance.
And if the machine continues to not have Internet, you'll also have do it again (get a new offline key) whenever you might update.

I don't know anything of Dropbox, but does the section on Symbolic Link Handling apply?

Care to expand on just what you did to fix your end?

Did you have to create/update something like, $HOME/.local/share/mime ?

Did you try the free version?
If not, I would.
(Actually since it's a timely operation, I'd wait for those who actually know to respond ;-).)

Donation uses a "license file", & I'll suspect it's tied to some "hardware id".
And when you Sysprep, I'll suspect that a different "hardware id" is ...

(Since we're talking time zones, Looking for an Add-on to Modify Timestamps.

Likewise you can check your current timezone from a C: prompt (in Windows).

What is you sync'd locally, then encrypted & uploaded?

So you sync from /my files/ to /my files to go to cloud/.
Then copy/encrypt from /my file to go to cloud/ to /encrypted/.
Then simply move anything that is in /encrypted/ to CLOUD.

You'll end up with (potentially) 2x the files locally but that ...

s/can not disable/can disable/ ;-).

He meant to say, "can disable" (rather then "can not disable").

@P, while that may have worked around your issue, I would think that is not the correct way to go around it.

Also thinking that your issue was not ? dealing with the writing of the .log file?
If it did, that would mean that \Program Files\FreeFileSync\ was a "protected" place, where \Program Files ...

Perhaps the same answer as, viewtopic.php?t=12058#p46913 - I don't really know?

Or a search here for "onedrive" might turn up more?

If you're going from source to destination, & only want particular source files in particular destination directories, why not just set up multiple pairs with appropriate filters?

So you have a source of /comingled/
& two destinations of /raw/ /processed/

/comingled/ -> /raw/ with Filter *.raw ...

Given that you already have a 'Show in Explorer' context menu item available within the Results list, fail to see why something like that couldn't (simply, he says ;-)) be expanded to also include the Overview items?

Most likely the parent folder has the compressed attribute on the source side but not on the target folder.
I don't see that (Compression pertaining to a directory)?
On my end, NTFS, I'm seeing (source) DI, D=directory, I=not indexed.

Within said source (directory), I compressed a file (1 of 4 ...

Is your Update using the "Use database" option?
Maybe that is playing in.

If you set up a different, sample sync, without the "Use database" option, does that also send files to trash?

If not, then post a screenshot of your comparison.


See if something here might apply, Why "update" mode want to ...

I took a quick look yesterday & using a grep it was easy enough to find "strings", like "Error:", but I don't know that the found data is particularly useful as (at least in .txt output) more pertinent data is found on following lines.

And in order to parse it, better, not sure just what to use ...

Maybe it had to do with something like cluster size?
Most likely (?) exFAT was using 128 KB, where NTFS is using 4 KB.
And then compounding the issue is the small sizes of the files you were syncing.

There seems to be reasons for exFAT's large cluster size, Why is exFAT's default allocation size in ...

For an installer version, it looks like it should be in a place like, \user\current\AppData\Roaming\FreeFileSync\GlobalSettings.xml.
And it doesn't look to be hidden or anything like that.

(I'd have to agree. Simply Tee the information to a file as progress continues.)

How about the Ignore Errors (option, in the Comparison tab).
Would that blanket ignore all errors, & just proceed to the next file.
(Which I guess would relegate you to actually checking the Log...)

But that's not the issue, particularly, is it...

192.168.x.x is a "private" IP address.
Now not sure if that is expected (in context of "Passive Mode")?

Though if you're wanting to go through the "internet", it would need a "public" IP address.
