FreeFileSync Forum

Thanks, that's solve the problem. But I realized that this is a configuration at application level, I can't set this parameter in the batch file or for individual taks of sync. Or i am wrong and it is possible to create a batch sync file that copy the DAL information and another batch file that does...

I have a computer in which I am running FFS. I have a network folder in a remote computer. I want to mirror the network folder to the local computer, so the source is the network folder and the destionation is a folder in the local computer that is running FFS. I few cases, when some file is trying ...

Thanks, this solve the problem.

Thanks so much.

But how should I monitored source and destination? I would have RTS installed in the destination computer and it will check the source computer.

Yes, I understand if another FFS will modify the source, it is better to lock, but in my case the flow of the copy will be always from source to backup computers, FFS while never modify the source folder.

In the documentation it is said this: "LockDirectoriesDuringSync: In order to prevent multiple synchronization tasks from reading and writing the same files, FreeFileSync instances are serialized with lock files (sync.ffs_lock). The lock files are only recognized by FreeFileSync and make sure t...

I have created a batch file in FFS and it works well in FFS. Then I open RTS and I drag and drop this batch file to it and save it to batch real time file. Then I close RTS and double click the real time batch file that I have created. it syncs the folder correctly, but after it finished, in the ico...

I know that real time is notify by the operative system when a change is done. But is real time do periodic scans to ensure that the sync is correct? How does it work in the following cases? 1.- I have a source folder with files. I just have configure realtime and start it for the first time. Destin...

I am doing some tests and I realized that the sync_ffs_lock is created in both folders, in the source and in the destionation. However, while the sync is running and the lock files still exist, with the file explorer (that is another process) I can create files, remane folder... etc, in both folders...

I have done some tests and yes, it works perfect, it is immediate if I create, modify or delete some file, it is notify at the moment.

Suponse that I have a server and a remote computer. In my remote computer I install FFS for realmtime monitoring and watch a folder in the server. For security reasons, the remote folder only can read files in the folder in the server, so I get an error that tells that it is not possible to create t...

For testing, I have create a source folder with a text file in which I have added a new user with only read permissions. When I sync and the file is copy the destination folder, in permissions of the file, I can't see this user, it takes the permissions of the parent folder. There is some way to cop...

I read the documentation, and it says that it syncs when the operative system notify when a changed is done, so the performance is much better then iterate for all the files periodically. Well, my dobt is that I would like to sync a folder in a server and a backup drive that is in the network. To av...

In the log, I can see the actions creating, updating and moving, but if I would like to parse the log text file, I think it would be better if I could search for a code, so it wouldn't depend on the language and also it would be more accurate. Would it be possible to add a unique code for e aeach ac...
