FreeFileSync Forum

I am setting uop a three-way sync between a Windows 11 laptop, an Ubuntu 23.04 laptop and a NAS. The sync is not (yet) automatic so I run a two-way sync from either of the laptops …

and surprise, surprise here's another user who found your docs so inadequate he wrote his own [URL]

Hi, If you have that much data, and you don't access all of it all the time, S3 storage can and should be the most cost effective. I'd compare Backblaze B2 storage to Idrive S3 sto…

I didn't see this in the top Menu Bar. I also clicked on the arrow down to minimize but can't seem to get the window back. The sync should take 2 hours to finish so my only option …

[Quote] Your issue is not relevant to this topic, you have something else going on in your system.

I'm in the same situation. Did you figure it out? I would love some help. Thanks!

@Zenju There's developments! Maybe this info can help you if you were interested in looking into this?

[URL] @Zenju Can we just delete duplicate posts from now on?

With "batch jobs lost" I suppose you are mean FreeFileSync (FFS) sync configurations you saved from the FFS GUI as batch files. If you do so, those sync configurations files are sa…

As I was told, admins can easily use an MSI in Microsoft Software Center but need scripting in case of an EXE. The last backup product we evaluated resulted in a quite complicated …

This was going to be my first post. I also would like FFS for QNAP. Their default backup/sync app is terrible and the ones on myqnap.org aren't much better. They mainly focus on sy…

It seems to be working for the folders and files I tested it on, thanks! I will probably try to modify it myself when I have more time.

Perhaps this thread helps: [URL]

I AGREE Everything is FAST! I have a desktop file indexer that uses Everything.

That would definitely involve more time and money than it would end up bringing in

I believe the idea was, you run the "chunk" first, & if does not compare, you're done (as in the files are not identical, so no need to compare any further). If it does compare, th…

[Quote] Missed that the first time. Well, aside from that, if you remove the path to the sounds (in Tools | Options), or if you instead enter a path to a "sound" that does not make…

Just to fix permissions. If you keep using FFS with the option to retain ACLs, you should be fine going forward

[Quote] Both "Queries per minute" and "Queries per minute per user" are quotas. And so is the 750 GB per day limit. So the "403: User rate limit exceeded" alone isn't enough to dis…

Thank you ... hopefully that is enough information to figure out the issue. By the way ... I can report that the same exact behavior occurs when a file is hidden and starts with a …

Hi, I synchronized a number of folders at the same time, but had forgotten to change to "PERMANENT" instead of RECYCLE, which generated errors. I tried to clear the error triangle …

Brilliant! :-) So simple and so obvious : thanks so much!

I'm not saying it is easy and that I can implement it. I rely on FFS and I haven't found better alternative. I just wanted to say that gui and dark mode aren't secondary features. …

Considering FFS' goal is to sync data without any manipulation, adding such a feature would directly violate that. I wouldn't hold your breath for such an option even to be conside…

Never delete a forum post! Others may have the same or a similar issue and this could be some help!

Hi, If all you're looking to do or primarily looking to do is periodically backing up files or synchronizing those files that are on your Android phone to some other server whether…

This may be an OS/language issue, seems to look fine on Windows for me. [Attachment] [Attachment] I suppose there's a small gap on the filters page, but no where near what you are …

I think the choice for just left-to-right for a Mirror or Update sync prevents a lot of mistakes that may cause data-loss, and thus makes sense. If you want to Mirror or Update syn…

@B4STI1: With the screenshot posted above it looks like there shouldn't be a warning about a multiple folder pair conflict. If there is however, it likely points to a legitimate pr…

That's a shame then, it would be a massive time saver. I've already done SFTP before but in that case I am network limited, so I have to do the 1000s of small files on FTP and the …

Hello FFS. First of all thank you for this wonderfull tool. I just have a request for a problem I sometimes have synchronizing files. I uses FFS to maintain backup copies of my fil…

You are right, my mistake, sorry. I read: "if not errorlevel = 0, but I thought of "if not errorlevel 0". That is of course something different.

Hi I have been using Linux freefile sync for years and its great. Just started using it on a Pi 5 and it frequently reports an incorrect size of file to be transferred, any way to …

Better yet, it's open source! Make your own changes!
