FreeFileSync Forum

I just did some Quicken work and the data file DID copy over to the cloud directory now. Very strange. I will keep monitoring the situation.
THANKS again.
Danny

So I did a file test.qdf and placed it in my documents. Freesync did copy it to the could just as it's supposed to. I will keep tabs on the main data file to see when I make a change on my c drive if it go to the cloud too. Very strange.
THANKS for the help and support.

It's been so long since I set this up, but I think it's 2 way syncing.

This is what I get when doing a manual sync.
See attachment

Thanks
Danny

Make a change in the Quicken file, run a compare in FFS. See if it it seen as a change that needs to be synced. If not, sounds like a path or filter is the issue. If it is, run a sync and check the logs for errors

I see that my Quicken backup gets synced. I've made a test folder and it got ...

I have FreeFile sync batch running so that MyDocuments are synced to the cloud. It seems that not all files are being synced. As a test I made a folder on my C drive and it was copied to the cloud folder, HOWEVER, my Quicken data files does not sync since April 1 when the WD shut down their servers ...

Earlier this month Western Digital had a security breach and shut down their servers. I'm running a WD MYCLOUD single-bay system in my home network. This meant that I was unable to access my files on my cloud. After they finally got the servers back up and I was able to access my files on my cloud ...

I've got this message

I have in particular a discrepancy with a sync. My cloud folder where my Documents are synced appears not to sync my Quicken data file today. It shows ...

Thanks I saw that I had posted a similar problem some time ago. Sorry for the duplication without checking my old posts.

I had a message on the desktop about the APAPP not responding (I believe). I had a hard time rebooting the computer. Attached is the crash dump file if anyone wants to look at it to see if there's a problem. I think my files are up to date for backups.
Thanks for the help.

p.s. I get an error ...

Thanks.... I opened the dmp file in notes and it was a zero byte file, nothing there so I deleted it. There was event listed for the time the dmp was created. The WD Dashboard shows excellent health on my HD. I find sometimes the computer acts stupid, so I reboot and everything goes fine. I run it ...

Well I'm not sure since the system should have been idle at the time. My concern was if the program crashed due to some Windows issue or an issue with FreeFile. I had an extremely hard time restarting the system, Windows seemed to be hung on something, although I got no Windows error message. If it ...

Apparently something happened at 3:26 am this morning and I now have a DMP file. Can I look at it or should I post it here for someone to look at?
THANKS
Danny

I'm sorry for being late in responding to this. I finally figured it out.
Thank you for the help.

Small problem, I dragged the RealTime Sync from the directory C:\programs to the startup folder C:\Users\Danny\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
but when I either reboot or on startup, the icon comes up on the desktop and I have to click start for it to run and go ...

THANK YOU very much. I guess I did pay attention the 1st time.
Danny

THANKS for the reply.
I did create a batch file for the syncing of my documents using FreeFileSync for which folder to check on the local drive and compare it to the folder on my cloud, Maybe that isn't correct but that the way I understood the tutorial video. I haven't found how to keep the ...

Is there a way to keep the program in the background and not pop up when running?
Thanks
Danny

What I meant saying about the recycle bin is If I delete a file or folder I don't care about recovering them. I consider it gone and not needed.
Thanks for the help
Danny

Plerry.... Thanks for the reply and help. I've just switched from WDSync to FreeFileSync, so the recycle bin isn't a issue about saving.
Danny

I just installed Real Time Sync and I get this error message
The recycle bin is not supported by the following folders. Deleted or overwritten files will not be able to be restored:
\\WDMYCLOUD\WDSync\My Documents

How can stop getting the error from popping up on the screen at the end of the sync ...
