FreeFileSync Forum

Yes, that was the article i have initially read about RealTimeSync first. I think, my mistake was it to use the "on completion" command. Instead of using one single *.ff_batch file, i should use 2 files. The first for the scheduler with the RealTimeSync as "on completion" command and a second one ...

OK, many thx. then i test that configuration today. The folder on the server is the same for every client, also the sync options. Only the folder on the client side is sometimes a subfolder on another harddrive.

This means that I can safely synchronize another PC with the same server without changing the status of the previous PC? Will in that case a second sync.ffs_db will be created or is the existing one used?

The above setup seems to be not a good way. I was shocked when I saw hundreds of processes with RealTimeSync.exe in taskmanager. Is there a better way?

If FreeFileSync find differences there is a default entry with WinMerge which works when i select via rightclick > WinMerge or press "2". Is there a way to specify my own Shortcurt for example "F3"?

I want to keep some directories in sync with more than 1 PC. Now i have seen, that there is also a file called sync.ffs_db created on the server side of the directories i want to keep in sync. Will the information in that database file collide with the a second PC sync operations or have every PC ...

Yeas, indeed. I have both folders like in the Screenshot. If i delete the remote folder, it works.

The second part was about how to start RealTimeSync.exe. Must i start this every time Windows boots again or should i use this as a Service? Or will RealTimeSync.exe started automatically after a ...

Sorry, the error was not about versioning, it is the following error: "The following path does not support directory monitoring". Yes of course, you can not monitor this target. But i didnt want to monitor the target, i want monitor only the source and copy the file to the target, which does not ...

Hello,

i would like to monitor one directory for changes of only 1 file. If this file is changed, it should be uploaded via SFTP to my local Server. I would prefer it, that there is no visualization to the user (i.e dialog, window ore anything else). How can i do this?

What i have done so far: I ...
