ffs task doesn't end

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.

Exlude items older than 7 years

Working on a file server migration and I wanted to ask if this was possible with FFS. They have almost 1TB of data in various SMB shares but some of that can be archived. Is there and option that can copy folders (including subfolders) and files but exclude files and folders older than 7 years? It l...

Re: How to run all batch's

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"

How to run all batch's

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?
