Hello, It is saying I'm transferring at 883 MB/s and while I'd love to have a 100 Gb card, I only have a 10Gb card.

I am running into this same issue. However, I am seeing this as a persistent issue. Any hope of getting this resolved? I am on version 6.11 of FreeFileSync.

Folder existence is checked independently, so this shouldn't be an issue. Do you have steps how to reproduce this?

FFS is indeed an excellent tool - I'm using it as a replacement for the old Fileware "FileSync" app, which was also excellent but has not been updated for many years now and creaks…

"This sounds like you want to just setup the ordinary FFS versioning?" You were right, obviously, from your first reply to my post. I didn't know that if I use the mirror option, w…

> differences are only in letters case FFS syncs case, that's a feature. > why would it sync "right to left" You're using `<two way>` sync variant?

Good point, the sentence is not as clear as it should be. I'll not explain, but revise it directly: While RealtimeSync is executing the command line, monitoring is inactive and cha…

Hi, I have a lot of configurations that I run at once and I would find it nice if there was a seperate column for configurations in the overview section of the UI. So that I know w…

I'd find this option useful on occasion, too. Personally, if only one section of the file was to be compared, I'd most often want the start compared (with headers and such likely t…

I also run FFS from a portable stick. I would vote to make this optionally configureable in the .ffs_batch or .ffs_gui files. This could be done in the "<FolderPairs>" node for eac…

I just realized that it already works with File Versioning. We can close this request. Thanks a lot!!!

FWIW, I use a .bat file to do some chores before calling my FFS batch job from my .bat file. When FFS exits the .bat file calls a second instance of FFS for a different job.

Hi Zenju, First, thank you for your great utility, have been using FFS for years now. Which is why this request is slightly embarrassing... Today I wanted to change the location of…

I agree, it's on the todo list.

That means FFS will stop changing the "creation time" and will work like I wrote here: [404, Invalid URL: https://sourceforge.net/p/freefilesync/feature-requests/292/#a772] if Yes …
