FreeFileSync Forum

It would be very useful if some simple filters were made available for the folders monitored by RealTimeSync. I have a sync job in FreeFileSync which excludes a number of temporary files gen...

@therube At least in Windows, FFS does not/never preserve the timestamp of folders. See e.g. [URL].

Hi egomezk Thanks for the reply. Looks interesting, will look in to it. At a first glance it looks like i mapp virtual drives on OneDrive in Explorer and I use EasySync to sync from my local...

[Quote] Now also possible via GUI: [URL]

And I was thinking about this more, & thought... maybe... Size:0 & Win10, maybe there's something with that. But that didn't pan out. I took 100K files - mostly 0-bytes (18K of the 100K were...

Is there a solution for this Problem 2 years later....??

I have a Pixel 4a running android 10. There is one issue that I thought was a reliability problem, but it turned out to be a security feature. Basically, I have a desktop docking/charging st...

I agree FreeFileSync is a great software. For such reason we should all send requests to help the Developer Team to make it even better. It is not a critic. It is a help.

I downloaded FreeFileSync source code from [URL], and it looks like a POSIX version of the code. I can't find any Windows API calls: no code to handle DACLs, copyItemPermissions uses POSIX c...

Not unless it gets programmed back in

This would be great.

I did not actively seek out the "Check for updates Now". I saw a dialog box appear that offered/recommended/suggested it to me without informing me it would close the windows and make me los...

Easy to reproduce: Eg...: 1) Mirror Folder A to Folder B with say a few files with size 2gb like abc123_2gb.mkv 2) Set folder B drive's recycle bin limit to 1024mb or 1gb. (Please note the o...

Hey, Do you plan to release in the future FFS to Winget ([URL]) ? Thank you

Would be available in the near future one version for windows 10 ARM64? I know that windows x86 version of this marvellous software is running under simulator, but I trying to find native wi...

Thank you! Fixed.

I mean, I can deselect it, it's just that it would be nice to have it, since we do move large folders and files from once place to another. I've it working with the dmf option deselected, ho...

Oh, the log will always contain what happened, you can't change that in FFS.

You would have to research the risks on spanned volumes. FFS scans the source and destination to determine what needs to be synced

With that said, I would just leave it or reset it to default after satisfying your curiosity

[Quote] +1 Agreed. That is rather handy :-).

No problem! :-) Thanks for taking the time out to mention it.

There is already an option that solves the problem, Task Scheduler, and it's more robust and universal. I didn't say change the time to hours? What is it set to now? How often are these dire...

I think those are exclude filters, so try setting the minimum size to 800gb+

[URL] [URL] Malwarebytes is the only one that does detect it

Related: Apparently the convention is for macOS, Linux to use SI units, i.e. bytes are reported in powers of 1000, while Windows uses powers of 1024, despite incorrectly presenting them as S...

Yes, when you save the batch files/config, there is a checkbox to run minimized and one for ignoring errors

[Quote] We may prefer it but in fairness to this system the donation copies you get are forever unlocked, they do not "expire" and that means that for the most part you can wait for some per...

Same problem of not deleting old computers. I paid for donation, but I have to use Free version on new computers due to recent computer failures. No other software company uses this delay gi...

As a side note, just copied 3GB in under 20 sec locally, and 138GB in about 1 hour remotely. Everything seems to work fine, no slowdowns or random crashes, so far so good! Excited to hear th...

pseudo-code: [Code] (namepart, would return the name part of the filename, sans extension. Windows actually uses %~nI, I think it is, to accomplish that.)

It's always a small setting I swear lol

There is no use for that, why would you want that

[URL] and look at "copy locked files"

Wonderful! Thank you so much!!

Resolved it myself by using different GlobalSettings.xml file. [URL]

Very glad I did another search when I was notified of the 11.11 update and found this. I have to admit that I'd stuck on 11.5 because I wasn't happy with the .run installer. It is an install...
