Well, maybe FFS already has it in the options just found out too there is a compatison tab with option to check "Include symbolic links:" (_) Follow or (_) As link.
I'll try them. :0)

Hmm, just adding I think I just found out the issue, but maybe need a reprogram FFS on it. So, by checking the destination forlder G:\name\subname, it is a Junction Link, where redirects to C:\users\subname, so maybe some issues when comparing junction links, the FFS should compare the source path o...

Hi folks, after comparing two folders with the same name in folder and subfolder: E.g: 1st: D:\name\subname ans 2nd: G:\name\subname and after having diferences to Syncronize, by hitting the button Syncronize updade, I got the error: Cannot create directory error - ERROR_ALREADY_EXIXTS: Not possible...

Thanks for the Update Zenju and all improvements. Have a stunning day.

Currently the checkmark corresponds to the result of the log file that is linked. A comparison without sync means no update to the log, hence no update to the checkmark icon. The (design) question is whether the checkmark should stand for something else, and if so what exactly. In my opinion as sai...

Sorry, I meant the "last sync time". The green checkmark is only updated when doing an actual sync (which creates a log file that is linked to): https://freefilesync.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6345 Zenju, in my humble opinion, If you run "Compare" and there are no differences, it...

This should make things more clear: (hopefully) save-as.PNG Great, much better. Just don't forget in the new update as I mentioned to bgstack15 that the icon in question the file is called file_sync.png and it is also used in another places that have the correct meaning for the previous sync symbol...

Another way to do not show up the green checkmark that was supposed to show... - Select multiple jobs where one of them has an error*; - Compare them; - You will have the log with (X)*; - Now select the job (the content are equal) that doesn't need a sync and has not error but earned an error icon f...

FFS doesn't set the green checkmark when there were warnings or (ignored) errors during comparison. That wasn't the case. One way to you check the "issue" is... (Do it in a job that doesn't need sync, in other words the comparison is equal and you have saved it previously): - Right click ...

You can toggle which categories are shown below. Actions depend explicitly on the categories, so there is no reason to have options for both. Now I got it, my fault, I saw after comparing the "Select view" on the bottom bar (View settings windows). It is cool also you get to move it up if...

Hi Zenju, thanks for your reply. Yes I have FFS 10.17, and I can't remember right now why it was not showing the green icon after no sync needed (equal status for both folders). Actually if the previous icon status is green mark, when comparing with no changes it is ok, it shows the green icon, but ...

Dear Dev. when comparing folders, if no changes shows the job on the left list should be marked as "Completed sucefully" (Green check mark as ticked) .
Thanks.

Actually it should be 2 diskettes, the actual black for "Save" and the diskette suggestion with question mark (green or red) for "Save as...". For 'batch job' keeps the actual "->>_" icon or if it was 3 diskettes, the 3rd one for batch would be a different image of the ...

You can toggle which categories are shown below. Actions depend explicitly on the categories, so there is no reason to have options for both. I'm sorry, but maybe I didn't understand your point or you didn't understand my suggestion. It isn't related with which categories to show, but a way to sort...

Hi Plerry, thanks for the explanation. I appreciated that. Yes, for my case I'll need to do it for the order name I place with numbers starting on it and perform sequentially as you mentioned.
Have a great weekend.
Cheers.

It should be possible to replace the icons in your own installation. The Icons.zip file stores the icons by name. You can make a custom icon and replace the relevant named icon in Icons.zip. - Thanks for the tip bgstack15, but your tip/workaround doesn't solve and will cause a mess instead. The ico...

Hi developers, not a big deal, but you guys would replace the actual SAVE AS icon which is the image of a "Sync icon" or FFS "logo" and would confuse users as a button to synchronize. So, I'd suggest to replace it with an icon image as an diskette with a question mark over it. Ch...

Hi folks, here goes my 2nd feature request that in my opinion would help the user and be very useful: Objective - Sort by action or category How to achieve for action - From the window "Synchronization preview" where it shows on left categories and on right action, the user would click on ...

Hi folks, first of all nice to meet you all. 2nd I want to say thanks to Zenju and all folks that collaborated some way for creating and sharing such amazing software. I had tried before other similar software and FreeFileSync is far away much faster and better. Congratulations. Well, here goes my f...
