Feature Request: Show drive letter AND label

I use removable USB drives to create swappable images of the drives on my media server. The live drives have labels like "Plex_F" and the backups have labels like "Plex_Fb". Since the drive letters for the removables change from time to time, I really wish that I could see the volume labels in the ...

Re: Dark mode


Why waste effort on cosmetics?


"Cosmetics" can be extremely important to vision-challenged users. If the "standard" dark mode cannot be implemented -- and it seems like a real P.I.T.A. (I tried to do it for one of my native win32 apps) except for UWP apps -- perhaps options to choose colors ...

Re: Update Link For Donations

Never mind. I just discovered the new auto-updater, which is GREAT! I also discovered that the program already knows my download link, but I find it through the ABOUT dialog instead of the update process. Sorry for my slow brain today.

Update Link For Donations

I always find myself searching through my various email clients, folders, etc. to relocate my donation link when FFS tells me a new version is available. I'm thinking it would be a wonderful option to allow us to enter our specific donation 'code' (from the end of the our donation link) or some such ...

Re: Only compare folders that already exist on the target?

OK, there's a work-around, thanks.

Still, it would be great if the program had an option to do this automatically. I use my old (i.e. smaller) drives for backup so none of them can contain everything. It would be easier to be sure I don't make a mistake if the program had an option to only sync the ...

Re: Ad-Free version cannot find new version

Thanks, I did not realize that the download link I received after my donation would download new versions over time. I thought that the program "knew" of my donation and would take me to the correct download page when it reported a new version. This works pretty much the exact opposite of everything ...

Re: Ad-Free version cannot find new version

OK, my donation was $20 in May, which, I believe should get me 6 months access, but it does not.

Only compare folders that already exist on the target?

I really like FreeFileSync as a backup tool, but I often wish it was easier to back up only the (root) folders I want to my backup drive. For example, my media server has several directories of movies and shows that I want to back up, and several directories of other things that I do not. Right now ...

Ad-Free version cannot find new version

I donated and downloaded the ad-free version 8.1. When it tells me there is a new version available, it always brings me to the ads-included download. Is a donation required for every update in order to remain ad-free?
