I had the same problem when translating the phrase to Greek. The description I ended up using would be back-translated into English as:

"Adaptation (or modification) of the right folder, so that it becomes an exact (mirror) copy of the left folder."

I don't think there is an easy way to do this (nor that it is a very common scenario).
But if you really want it, I bet you can achieve it using macros, temporary environment variables and a batch or cmd file. See the "Macros" page of the Help file (esp. the last three paragraphs).

You can have three options. 1. Keep all versions of old files 2. Save only the most recent version 3. Save versions at certain intervals There is more information in the FreeFileSync Help file, under the tab " Versioning " The appropriate menus are in Synchronization Settings > Versioning

First of all, you must be sure that "Two-way" is selected in Synchronization Settings. Secondly, after the first "two-way" sync, FFS creates a database file (sync.ffs_db) in each folder that holds information for the synchronization and "remembers" the current state. If...

It seems a legitimate request.
For now, I can suggest deleting the file "Sync_Complete.wav" in the FFS folder (or replacing it with a sound of your liking). FFS works fine without it!

Great, it works just fine!
I hope other users won't be inconvenienced...

First of all, thanks for the reply! My scenario is simple: I synchronize the database files and then I open the program that works using the database files (it is custom-made, let's call it DBExec). I have created a batch job that does the synchronization and on completion runs DBExec. So, you're ri...

Hi! I'm using version 5.22 on Windows 7 Ultimate. I've set up an FFS batch job so that on completion it will run another executable. The comparison procedure finishes, the executable is run, but FFS won't exit. It remains non-responsive, waiting for the executable to finish (and then it exits, too)....

OK, thanks!

Hi, again, and thanks for a wonderful program (again)! I've started using FFS with multiple folder pairs and I would like to make two minor suggestions. 1. Since the left folder is treated as the "primary" one (as seen in sync settings) and most people read/act left-to-right, shouldn't the...

I didn't know where to put this (feature request?) but since it has to do with (the Greek) translation) I'm posting it here: In the messages regarding time (passed, remaining, etc) the time units (seconds, minutes, hours, days) have in the English language convenient plurals with an 's'. So when one...

Done! Thanks for the explanations.
I'll try to send it to you to your SourceForge email address

Hello! I'm so enthrilled with this application that I decided to translate it into my mother-tongue, Greek. A couple of things: -Shouldn't the first "Byte" (lines 5&6) in the .lang files be "Bytes"? -A "D-click" in the .lang file, shouldn't it be "Right click&q...
