FreeFileSync Forum

I typed in .* to try to filter out all files that start with . but it doesn't do the job. Neither does .*.* or \.* or \.*.*

Can anyone help?

Not sure if there has been any more development in this area but I also noticed that I cannot stop syncing any files with file name starting with a dot '.'.

I tried syncing all my files from my Dropbox folder and none of these filters work to exclude .dropbox.cache and .dropbox.attr:

.*
.dropbox ...

I am having the same problem. I can manually copy the files from source to destination but freefilesync seems to have trouble doing that!
