Hi, Are you considering integrating other cloud storage? I would welcome... Dropbox One Drive Personal One Drive Bussines SharePoint Online Do you have any predictions on when this tool will...

It's not about another FFS. It's about making the sync or mirror operation FFS-exclusive, i.e. no other process can access the "copy to" folder while the sync or mirror operation is running....

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.

Hi everyone, I am using freefilesync for synchronising two remote folders and I must admit it is working quite well. I just have a request, if possible : I have made several tests with the m...

Sounds good, any way to improve detect moved/renamed files should be considered.

FFS remembers the last place you saved/opened them

Yes

[Quote] oh i guess this is known, thanks for confirming!

[Quote] Now there's something for FFS to improve! FFS should first consider the HOME environment variable, then fall back to getpwuid(getuid())->pw_dir. This is default Linux behavior and sh...

The beauty of FLOSS is that if this developer moves on from this project, similarly-skilled individuals can pick up the project! It sounds like you don't have a full perspective of FLOSS yet...

Excellent ... thank you very much! Sid

There will never be something like that.

What differences? Syntax differences are the only thing I really encounter, which anyone that can successfully use Linux probably knows already.

You can just click the '-' symbol to remove a folder pair. It doesn't permanently remove it from the config unless you click 'save' after removing a pair.

Gotcha! You can only set a shortcut to run as admin if it points to an exe. It sounds like you have a shortcut to the .ffs_batch file, which is why you can't check that box. You would need t...

Thank you, I'll give it a try.

Also, two-way and update will definitely not delete files from target, for two reasons: 1) Two-way had no target 2) 'Update' is explicitly set up to never delete Your configuration must have...

This option is available in tools like Carbonite and Gs Richcopy 360 , maybe there is way via FSS but really have no idea

Hello, Is planed to intergrate a webbased console for using FreeFileSync on a Server ? Thank you.

The green background is too bright here: [Image] And some of the text like "Identify equal files" here is too dim (actually it's too dim in light mode too) and the links are a little too dar...

[Quote] It's not a matter to detect duplicate photos, but to check if there's one in the cloud with the same name but different date and size, so I can choose to keep the current cloud versi...

Do you know what a VPN is used for? It's more than just a "privacy" or "pirating" tool. It's used to connect to a remote network to access its local resources, like connecting to a computer ...

I want to donate but can't use PayPal, and won't use my credit card. Do you have a Patreon account perhaps? Love supporting Indies like you. Cheers!

"File content" comparison will do that: [URL] PS: Unless you've pulled the power plug, it's unlikely there is any data corruption, and the sync most likely did finish just in time.

Unfortunately this did not work either. I modified some music styles (genres) in Audio Expert, validated the change using MP3TAG which showed the change and then sync. Changes not selected. ...

Using Two-way sync, FFS will only delete files if those same files were (non-FFS) deleted from the other side. Otherwise FFS will copy those files to the side where they do not exist yet.

Yes, I know? That's why I said, "that's a whole program dedicated to a single file type." Setting up FFS to not detect timestamps isn't the fix either. Read the whole thread again. FFS canno...

Ctrl+T or context menu allows to copy selected files to another place. It would be nice to have the equivalent move option,too.

The tmp files are on a file-by-file basis, not for whole directories.

Will be nice to have a NAS/SHARE authentication instead of user authentication. I do a backup from different NAS and servers and each one have is own authentication. I save each users authen...

Yes in this scenario I think restoring would require FFS, but I'm not sure that "backup and restore" is the best way to think of this use case. It's more like "environment duplication". Envi...

Allie, good idea! I have the same request. I always display the conflicts so the show conflicts buttons would be better for finding the conflicts in a long list of files. An option to use th...

[Quote] Thanks. Knowing that, I feel better.
