I send the link to Zenju email.
FFS icon don't show up on the taskbar when I maximize it. CTRL + TAB don't show it...
11.21 works fine. The other newer versions do not.

I already uploaded the video. I hope it helps.

Perhaps FFS has crashed? I'd suggest checking if it is still running.


No, it's running. I can see the task running in the task manager. Also, if you wait, it ends up ending the job. Even if you don't click on the icon and just leave the mouse pointer on top, the number of synchronized files and ...

Ok... 11.21 is the last one that let me maximize. For now I'll stick with this version... It's not that it's something fundamental, but sometimes the synchronization takes many hours and I need to know in the morning if the backup is still running and what synchronization status it is in.

I have seen this behavior when the sync is very quick. By the time it opens, the sync is done and auto-closes the window. Is this a possibility?


No.. My job is big. It takes several hours to compare and sync. When I click on the icon it just disappears from system tray, but the task continues ...

I have the same problem. Software stops a few seconds after starts the compare.
Have send the dump file for your email.
Back to 11.23 works well.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
I have a batch job running on a certain schedule and in the past I see the FFS icon on system tray. When I click it popup and see the running job.
Now when I click it disappear.
this only happens in these latest versions. Don't know because of some FFS update or if it was caused by a Windows 10 ...

Will be nice to have a NAS/SHARE authentication instead of user authentication.

I do a backup from different NAS and servers and each one have is own authentication. I save each users authentication in Windows Credentials but this is a security risk. If the FFS had the possibility to store the ...

Hi,
Is there any way for the script to accept special characters, such as "ã". I'm trying to translate to Portuguese, but it doesn't accept some words that have special characters.
Thanks,


Ok, I managed to get the texts in the script to appear correctly by saving the script in ANSI format ...

@Squalo I have test the script that you attched and work without any error. I only change the program BatchFile to "FreeFileSync.ffs_batch" and add my email configs.

I think the problem is that you are putting the bat file (if you use), ffs_batch file and vbs in a wrong place. Like TheExpert say ...

@sagitario: Did you have a chance to test the SSL connection to your mail server after adding the lines timbretta added in his post above? Is it working? I hope I will have the time to build a new script at this weekend and will then add the SSL feature to the new script version. TheExpert, 14 Nov 2018, 09:05

Yes.. it work.

@Squalo: Did you try to put the SyncSettings.ffs_batch in the same folder of the vbscript?

I see in your file <Const BatchFile = "D:\Desktop\SyncSettings.ffs_batch">. I have already have this problem in my vbscript and I can't say you why because vbscript is not my strong. But I just managed to get ...

Hi,
I have the same error.
After some tests I find out the problem.
"Cannot find file "".
This is regarding the GlobalSettings. I put the default full path and the error message disappear. For some reason leaving blank don't work. Const GlobalSettingsFile = "%appdata%\FreeFileSync ...

Sorry, but not ...

Yeh... stupid question I know. I already read that but never put it working well... it return all the time a script error regarding the reading log file. But I understand now that the problem is regarding the batchfile path. Putting the command batch script in a different folder where the vbscript ...

Define the batch file as command line parameter so there‘s no need to set the ConstBatchFile in the script is a good idea. Can you put a example how to execute the command?

By the way, if you are changing the script, can you add the SSL/TLS authentication?

Thank you for good job with this script.
