Am I correctly assuming that FFS does not support incremental or differential backups with a clean seperation? I know about the Versioning feature, but I would prefer seperate Folders like Root * - Full Backup Day 1 * - Incremental Backup Day 2 * - Incremental Backup Day 3 etc. in best case with det...

Does the detection of moved files work, if the mount point (drive letter) changes? e.g. when I sync removable devices F and G, then I resync the drives on another computer as drive K and J?

The current CIS version does no longer have this problem - at least, when the "feature" is disabled. I dont want to test whether the problem persist with the enabled feature.

I have the same problem - even when I disable COMODO completely, delete the backup and use mirror mode to create a new backup.

This is really nasty -.-

Ah, I'm sorry. It is detected as movement, but its visualization is almost the same as add/remove. maybe it is better to visualize it in 1 line instead of 2?!
And in the filter it is categorized as "overwritten files" - which is not really what happens here.

Interesting fact. but its NTFS to NTFS

I had a successfull sync of the 2 directories before trying! ..... and the dbs are there.

Hi there, no matter whether I use 2-way, mirror or own config, the detection of file move does not work for me. It always detects add & delete when a file was moved to a different folder or renamed..... Version 6.2 x64, Win7 SP1 x64 PS: I had a successfull sync of the 2 directories before trying!

Well, in fact the cpu is the bottleneck in this case, because the one drive is encrypted. But I figured out that the cpu workload is not associated to a process at all.... so you're right, this wont help. but why does ffs prevent changing the priority - and how?

I wanted to set FFS to low priority, because the system became quite laggy.
Task manager told me "access denied" even though I have admin rights?!

detecting renamed files was one of the features why I gave FFS a try - but I cannot ind this setting anywhere?!
