Re: Automating RealTimeSync startup

OK. So now your running 8 simultaneous RTS's on an old PC sucking up memory? I ran this command: I:\PortableApps\FreeFileSync\RealtimeSync.exe i:\DocsSyncJob.ffs_real and RTS started right up in the tray, I din't have to click start.

Re: Automating RealTimeSync startup

Now that's a scary script. Why in Gods name are you running RealTimeSync again and again and again. create a regular FFS sync for all 8 folders and run RTS once.

Re: Keep previous versions of files

New idea: have no limit to begin with, but three naming conventions to choose from: 1. Session: the old 5.4 convention, but without the job name: YYYY-MM-DD hhmmss\folder\file.txt 2. Versioning: 5.10: folder\file.txt YYYY-MM-DD hhmmss.txt 3. Overwrite: folder\file.txt 1 offers the semantics of recy...

Re: Difference to seperate folder?

I hope this has not already been answered, I searched but did not find it. Is there a way to do a compare between two folders and then write the differences to another folder? (deletes excluded obviously) Is that somehow possible? Use case: I use freefilesync a lot, also when I'm upgrading websites...

Re: Folder input field for versioning muxt not be empty

Simply driving me nuts! All of my .ffs_batch files work just fine when manually invoked by double clicking on the batch file name. However, runs under task scheduler indicate that they were successful, but the update process does not actually take place - stated another way, the results from runnin...

Change in configuration file format?

I've been happily running v3.12 for a year or so now, and I decided to upgrade to the latest (4.5). Now, I get parsing errors on my configuration files, and I can't find any description of what's changed, or how to "migrate" my files. (I have 24 configuration files: 8 each of ffs_real, ffs...

Making RTS/FFS instances more polite

I've got 8 instances of RTS running in the systray, occasionally spawning FFS instances (sometimes up to 5 or 6 at once, more often 2-4). I've set things up so they all run at "idle" priority (with a script that runs at startup time). Even at this low priority, I often notice that the FFS ...

Re: Log files, directory and options?

Consider this a feature request: allow for the possibility of a single log
file per batch job (all invocations), one file per day, or one file per
invocation.

For now, I think I'll work up a batch job to zip up all log files older than a
week or so.
