It should be an option in settings what you want, I FIND IT VERY DANGEROUS for MIRROR

I would LOVE for the DELETE from both sides REMOVED from the interface OVERVIEW
INSTEAD pop up a dialog with CHECKBOX defaulting to the LEFT ONLY
I'm forever deleting both sides

PLEASE UPDATE ASAP

A FILTER in relative path for FILES ONLY and DIRECTORIES ONLY would also be nice

SPECIALLY FILES ...

I use syncback free for this feature and put ffs_batch at the end of first .cmd or .bat

I think there should be some ERROR / STOP messages in batches

I use FFS for more than just backup/sync

I need a way to RENAME the current LEFT side / RIGHT side files
right click on file list - RENAME

Rename window
Insert XXXX at Position [XX] or
Append XXXX or

Remove XXXX at Position [XX] or
Delete XXXX or

or if there is better way, I need to keep ALL ...

I NEED filters (macros) to work in FILE FILTERS
*%year%*%month%* etc...

still not liking ALL directories are MADE before files synced
LOGIC issue here..

if cancelled an come back, one thinks all the files are there when actually there are NO FILES in directories

RED remove empty in google
I just run it once a month
you can even set files to INCLUDE to be wiped (ie desktop.ini,pp*.ini*,folder*.jpg,album*.jpg,folder*.png)

you are playing with FIRE here, just discovered a bug??
I have EMPTY folder on left - folder I want to move a filter on RIGHT
DIREMPTY Filter: *.doc* | *.xls* DIRwithFILES replaceDir: NEWLOCATION

regardless of name
or VisiPics 1.31 (faster and what its designed for)

already there with versioning, but that brings to why I'm here
I would like ANOTHER option in versioning of DELETIONS
so ONE folder direction would be for Versions and the OTHER for DELETIONS
I would like to KNOW what files changed and what Files were deleted in two seperate folders as like
Versions ...

I am NOT loving all these different file systems on computer

[volume label of drive]

would like to know the current file size if over certain parameter Thanks

I set FFS to NOT Save when prompted and basically remove them manually like you and switch back to it, loads it right back up / doesn't prompt to save and screw me up

bump

my batch jobs look like this
this way I can ALWAYS recover files
I catalog the Deletes with whereisit, so I can see if the deleted folders are HUGE (then I know there was a problem on that date) ie: someone deleted a bunch of files

on the macro subject..
I would like %L/Rfolder1%, %L/Rfolder2%, %L/Rfolder3% added as macros to take the %L%eft %R%ight of the path at specific point
c:\users\jeff destination [removable]%Lfolder1% [removable]\users\jeff
c:\users\jeff destination [removable]%Lfolder2% [removable]\jeff
c:\1\2\3 ...

you can include them by ctrl click each job and it will make a new one

do you have your command like this? Must have "" since it has space in path

Ability to exclude TRUE dupes by size Name Dates
no matter what directory, would be nice
