Re: Recover from RecycleBin_tmp
It's probably 15 years since I last needed to restore deleted files. Back in the day "GetDataBack for NTFS" was the only tool that worked for me.

Re: Recover from RecycleBin_tmp
Recycle Bin deletion in FreeFileSync works as follows: Instead of moving one file after another to the Windows Recycle Bin (which would be dog slow), FreeFileSync moves all these files to a temporary directory during sync (e.g. RecycleBin~5b04.ffs_tmp). Just before the end of the sync, the files *in...

Re: remove name from donation edition
Showing real name and surname in the FreeFileSync Donation Edition is deliberate and a form of copy protection. This information not shared with anyone, unless you share it.

Re: Feature request - Always include folder pair in log file
There's an inconsistency in the code that skips the "synchronizing folder pair message" when there's nothing to do for a folder pair, except when the DB file needs to be saved. Arguably the message should be skipped in the later case too, when no files will be synced. Especially when using...

Re: Mirroring bug (?) related to FileTimeTolerance
Your problem may be self-inflicted. > I have set FileTimeTolerance to 0 ... I tend to agree with Plerry here. The reason you're seeing a 1 second file time difference is (most likely) because the underlying file system is lacking precision. https://freefilesync.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1183#p5178 ...

Re: "Both sides have changed" problems with backups
My question is 2 fold. 1) why does ffs do this when nothing has actually changed? The file on the target side obviously *has* changed. Whether this is a problem, or not, only you know. If you don't care that changed files on the target side will be overritten, you could tell the program that by sli...

Re: Directory/folder availability check

I'm not able to reproduce this. A "shared with me" folder that is linked to "My drive" is updated correctly in my tests when its content changes. However it seems to take a couple of minutes until these changes are notified by Google via change notifications.

Re: Does changing source volume name break "detect moved files" (MacOS)?
Changing the volume name does not impact detection of moved files, which relies on inode IDs.
Different sizes of sync.ffs_db file is not necessarily an issue. If there is any data corruption of these files, FFS would have shown an error after comparison.

Re: Why ignore leading and trailing spaces?
You're misunderstanding the feature. FreeFileSync still treats these file names as different, but matches them as pairs after comparison.
