This is exactly the parameter setting... however i am still puzzling out how this can be combined with either documenttype and/or filesize.

E.G. my wife is a teacher and works a lot with docx/xlsx. Usually those documents have a small size so its fine to keep a lot of versions from them. At least i ...

Interesting idea!

As I described the parameters would be:
default:9999999<age:7 default:1<age:28 default:1<age:180 default:1<age:360 default:1<age:720 default:1<age:1080...

I am still thinking about how to combine things with size and filetype or even filetype groups....

By the way: in your ...

rereading my post over and over again tells me that a configuration UI might be needed...

For now I hosted sourcecode and EXE here:

As for your origin requirement I got even some more crazy ideas:
Size, Age, Filetype and defaultvalues as a Key-value-list:
e.g.:
default:3 > age:100 type:docx-10 type:jpg-2 size:5-8 size:100-5

YAIIII!!!
@Zenju: I love your approach. But until then i need that possibility... I will continue the discussion in the other thread...

Other things why i could need that box:
--> After syncing to my NAS i want my NAS to go into standby,
--> or call via commandline a batch/exe to send an email or ...

Happy New Year!

1st the Revisionsdirectory
2nd the numbers of copies to be kept

For now it will work under the following requirements:
In synchronization settings, set deletion handling to Versioning and naming ...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

I will use this box to execute a exe that will cleanup older versions!!!

Thank you for your nice answer!

I think I will go for 2 RTS processes. One is watching the mentioned C folders and the other the D folders.
Of course you are right that my RTS is not watching whole C or D Drive. It is only watching those folders that are part of the syncing.

Regarding my temp ...

PS: Is it possible to let RTS call 2 ffs_batch files? RTS is able to look in folders from c and in folders from d. So idea could be that if it find something it will call FFS with 2 different ffs_batch files?

Hello All,

I have on my win 10 PC a SSD Drive called C:\ and a 2 TB HD called D:\
On C:\ and on D:\ i have some directories to become backed up.
I would like to go for versioning in case of deletion of a file from the sources.
(I use RealTimeSync for watching...)

SO:
which setup do you suggest?

i ...

Hmm... I guess I will write something during Christmas holiday...

Hello All,

I am new in the Forum but using FFS now for over 5 years...

I recently got a NAS and now I am looking for versioning of files as part of a backup scenario.
I read the Forum and several topics that have been related to versioning and the 2 possibilities:
