Yes, they are. Sometimes, not always. ....??

About the global filter. I understand your point. Applying global settings is
always something that users should use carefull. I just though it might
improve ...

>I should just rename it to something like "Filter all pairs" and "Filter

I use this app with great pleasure. I just dumped into one thing which is less

When you click on the filter button you get a window which says: "Global

application I would say.

hmmm, I think you are absolutely right when I think of it. Indeed, in those
two cases, one would not want it, but in any other case most probably yes
indeed! There is maybe another (more rare) exception: if someone has a custom
made ffs_gui file, but wants to alter it for some reason before ...

Thanks for the respond. To my opinion the answer would obviously be yes. It
could be added as checkbox indeed in either the global setting or in the batch
setup screen. In the latter case in can be selected per individual batch job,
hereby not complicating the general user interface for -simple ...

Hello,
I am enthousiastic about this app. But wonder whether it is possible to
automatically already start the compare whenever a conf. file is loaded (or
freefilesync is started with a conf. file). Or do only the compare job in a
batch process, instead of also already start the sync itself.
