Hello everybody. This is my first post in this comunity. I'm trying to use this software to backup data to my new WD Cloud Home and the copy is doned correctly. But, with a problem…

1. Todo, but a difficult one due to technicalities. 2. [URL]

OK, after quick investigation, I dropped my request. Effectively the activation is done only once, the magic apparently relies on install.dat file that is updated after activation.…

You might be able to configure your desktop environment (e.g., GNOME, Unity, MATE, Cinnamon, etc.) to perform a certain action when a usb drive is plugged in. I use Cinnamon and wh…

This seems to be an issue specific to your setup as I haven't heard of similar complaints.

Hi All Linux Mint 17.2 32 bit. I downloaded FFS using [Quote] and all appears ok. However, an error screen "Cannot find current FreeFile Sync version on line.........." comes up. H…

Hello, As I see the FreeFileSync only sync Folders, but files. I noticed that all the folders are empty, there is no file... What the matter did cause that?

Hello I've been using Freefilesync for over a year now, and it's fantastic. I now need to sync two computers to my NAS, so that the data on both computers is identical. (I won't be…

Hello everyone, it's been a while since the last reply on this topic but i have to agree with Giangi here. I've used v8.1 for a long time and was thinking it's time to upgrade to v…

Okay. Its possible that the daylight saving time feature isn't available in windows xp? I see the option in win 7, but on winxp there is no way to set. Yes, my father is ugly with …

[Code] Would be one solution (if FFS supported a command line before sync rather than after).

I should elaborate a bit. Because movement in view of the camera can be quite random, new folders can be created and files written to them at almost any time. So there is no way of…

I didn't know that about filtering via clicking in the comparison window [Example 2]! Thank you! That'll save me some trouble for portable devices. (PS. The reason I prefer not to …

I'm doing exactly the same thing with a 2 GB Passport drive. I'm not having this problem but I have a vague memory of having it. My memory might be incorrect but I think my solutio…

Zenju, I can't tell if you're serious or pulling my leg. :-) From your Microsoft quote: - "one item" - "a single shortcut" If every program simply dumped its icons into Start -> Pr…

Hello, i've tested with FFS a bit and it's a great piece of software. I have one sugguestion which might be useful for those using FFS as a backup tool. As far as I understand FFS …

This is one of the worst UI change I ever saw... First of all when you deselect more items quickly you always unckeck unwanted items because they come "up" due list refresh and the…

On my Macbook with Mac OsHighSierra 10.13.2 I want to delete the accompanying paths. [Attachment]

Maybe someone need a bat to do that. [Code]

Hello, I have installed Free File sync and it has synced correctly. However when I try and set up real time sync so it automatically syncs, I get the following message:- Incorrect …

HI. I'm a new user in FreeFileSync, before I used to only copy folders. But now I want to move them. I'm trying everything and it doesn't work. I have created two task: 1 - Copy th…

Well, fashion likes to come back. It's nothing extraordinary and inappropriate. And if someone does not bother to walk in old pants just because they are still quite functional ...

By running similar FFS Two-way variant syncs at both/multiple locations versus a portable disk, e.g. a USB stick, you should be able to achieve what you describe, with the exceptio…

That's the thing I am missing too.

Are you sure you two are having the "same thing"? This post from two years ago speaks of another version of this software. I suggest, that you open a new thread and no ressurect th…

Hello, first of all.. GREATE TOOL and big thanks to all developer/owner! It works very well for all my sync jobs, BUT to improve the speed between A-B, it would be nice to have a c…

Does anyone know how to setup FFS for ACD? Cheers

The people who provide free programs have to eat, just like the rest of us, so they deserve to make some money from their software. Often, the way they do that is to get paid to bu…

That link to the post and the complete thread should answer that. [URL]

I really appreciate the tip there. I would most def. test it and see if it works and feels smoother to work in that fashion. Having said that, I really would like FFS to keep my re…

I need to compare and sync a single folder on one drive with a folder and its subfolders located on another drive. I will always be copying files from the folder with subfolders ov…

Let's not forget the IMHO preferred solution of creating multiple configurations and dynamically merging only those that you need at a specific time: [URL]

Ok, thank you very much.

hmm - I'm coming back to this one.... cause Relative Path is too short, but Full Path is too long... I sync the folders Desktop, and Downloads from multiple WIN/MAC hosts to a cent…

Not sure if this is the correct answer, but this is how I handle it... - I have a linux server as central point (access via ssh and smb) - I run FFS on Mac and Windows boxes, synch…
