FreeFileSync Forum

I've created a batch file to copy a bunch of folders from and old server to a new one and it works great when running manually but when I scheduled it as a task and run it, the task just keeps running and I can see the FreeFileSync.exe present in the taskmgr but not doing anything.

One last question. Looking at their example, running the following command would run them one by one in order correct?

FreeFileSync.exe "D:\test1.ffs_gui" "D:\test2.ffs_batch" "D:\test3.ffs_batch"

Bingo, just what I was looking for. Thanks for the help

I have 4 folders that I plan on crating 4 separate batch jobs for but I do want to schedule them to run nightly. Instead of making 4 separate tasks in Windows task scheduler is there a way to run them all one after the other?
