Re: v2 and 2.1 will not start up!
Thanks for the info! I knew this Visual C++ compilation would cause some trouble... :) The problem is that some .dlls are missing on your work PC. Those are usually provided via "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package" which you might have installed on your home PC, so it's...

Re: v2 and 2.1 will not start up!
The latest versions will not start on my work computer. When I double click on FreeFileSync.exe I get an error stating 'This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect'. this error does not occur with v1.19 even when uninstalled and reinstalled. V2 works perf...

Re: V 2.0 is crashing
Indeed I found a bug when synchronization finishes: At this point there is a mismatch between actual and displayed data for a very, very, very small timeframe. (But it's enough to crash from time to time) The bug has been there all the time, but became visible not before compiling with MS Visual C++...

Re: V 2.0 is crashing
I can confirm the bug! It seems to appear only if synchronization finishes while the application is not visible (in background).
I'll look into this and find a solution ASAP.
Thanks, Zenju

Hi Zenju, I love the new version 2.0!

None are as good as FFS. It is hard to see how 2.0 c...

Re: V 2.0 is crashing
For v2.0 I made a major change in compilation: I used MS Visual C++ instead of MinGW. I'll recompile the sourcecode again with MinGW later and would kindly ask you to retest with the new build. This is the only thing that could explain this behaviour as there are no other critical changes since v1.1...

Re: Filter files problem
Hi Yosu, with v1.19 the behavior of the filter changed: It is now applied WHILE comparing. This has the advantage, that you can exclude whole directories, especially useful if comparing by content. In your case (I assume you use "*.doc..." as an include filter) this can make a difference: ...

No problem! Actually I can understand your confusion and have fixed it for the next release: If you add a new folder pair, the list of pairs automatically gets scrolled down to the bottom.

Re: Conflicts
Hi Jean-Pierre,
it's possible to drag-select multiple rows and assign a sync-direction. But even this might be difficult for 1700 files. I'll add an option to the context-menu to do that, similarly to the right-click filtering options.

Hi Rog, you're right! Due to the new concept, it's not clear which mode you're using.
