Re: Google Drive not Sync when i signout my Google from browser

Your Google browser session and FreeFileSync are completely unrelated. Logging out of one does not affect the other.

That said, Google has some page where you can can see a list of active device sessions and optionally log out. That would affect FreeFileSync, of course.

Re: Sync from Windows-Share to MTP-Device (Android Phone) sets modified date to sync date

saying it isn't supported is much quicker and easier than explaining the intricacies, although not completely accurate. Unfortunately that makes it sound as if the issue were with FreeFileSync, when it really is with Google. And in fact syncing with Android does work correctly in some cases (or ...

Re: Sync from Windows-Share to MTP-Device (Android Phone) sets modified date to sync date

Because MTP doesn't support it MTP is not the issue, BUT: Google doesn't implement it properly. On some Android phones it works, on others it doesn't, but it isn't a problem with the MTP specification. FreeFileSync correctly sets the WPD_OBJECT_DATE_MODIFIED attribute, which isn't of much benefit ...

Re: RTS crash on XP (ver. 10.11)

FreeFileSync/RealTimeSync on XP is beyond dead at this point.

That said, your dmp file shows that RTS is crashing due to a failed memory allocation of 64 kB. So apparently your system ran out of memory.

If that fails, I recommend SpaceSniffer to check disk usage. There is a faster alternative, WinDirStat, but I think the interface of SpaceSniffer is friendlier, and it's pretty fast anyway Or just use FreeFileSync's tree view on lower left. That already covers the good parts of all these space ...

Re: FreeFileSync To Google Drive - Stop Sync When Receiving "User Rate Limit Exceeded", Other Errors Ignore

If you exceed a quota, you'll receive a 403 Both "Queries per minute" and "Queries per minute per user" are quotas. And so is the 750 GB per day limit. So the "403: User rate limit exceeded" alone isn't enough to distinguish these cases, unless the error json structure contains additional details.

Re: FreeFileSync To Google Drive - Stop Sync When Receiving "User Rate Limit Exceeded", Other Errors Ignore

I haven't tested, but if "User Rate Limit Exceeded" is returned by Google not only when hitting requests per second, but also for the 750GB per day limit, then both reactions, retry or abort, would be inappropriate in some cases.

Re: FreeFileSync To Google Drive - Stop Sync When Receiving "User Rate Limit Exceeded", Other Errors Ignore

Maybe enabling "retry" and setting a delay would be a better solution?

The "User rate limit" error may also be an indication that you're using too many parallel threads.

Re: I do not understand what "paire multiples" means (and how to avoid it) !

@B4STI1: With the screenshot posted above it looks like there shouldn't be a warning about a multiple folder pair conflict. If there is however, it likely points to a legitimate problem with your setup. But this is all guesswork as you didn't post the warning.

Re: File "modified" date/time changed

Perhaps these files have NTFS alternate data streams, which triggers your anti virus software that is ultimatively responsible for the failed modification time.
