[Quote] My whole layout is completely different to that. I have 100s of lines of entries, all of which define the FULL folder path to backup on the left, with the INCLUDE FILTERS s…

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

This is not a FFS problem

[Quote] Tried it today in 13.8 (why did I wait sooo long after your answer ^^ ? I don't know) and it works perfectly ! It is for me the solution since I have only one server and th…

Hi, What is your OS? Not within the software. You need a third party tool to mount Amazon as a drive. If you are on Windows, try Airlivedrive. There is another for Linux.

Clicking on any of the Compare results category icons toggles the visibility of that category. If you only (or first) want to check conflicts, simply hide the other categories.

You don't show it, but I take it that you are not using the /MT (multi-thread) switch (which in a brief look some time back seemed that it could affect dates).

Thanks for the insight. The subject matter we are discussing is intra-application job scheduling. Begs for a feature request. Lets call the established modus operandi "full paralle…

That's exactly what I'm doing at the moment. But it's not very comfortable

You can configure FFS to retry numerous times, this may work for you

Can you open C:\Projects\WebGL\.gitattributes in Windows Explorer? Anything here help, [URL]

I see, I must have misunderstood OP's request. Setting up a custom command for an external application should work

Great. I appreciate the quick response. This is ideal then, as in my circumstance it is difficult to organise this. I don't think it is very explicit, but thanks for explaining! Al…

I suppose this is because the flatpack package of FreeFileSync is not an official release (as by the author of FreeFileSync and found on the [URL])

[Quote] Don't double post.

Thanks for the report! Issues have been fixed for the next release: 1. Filter description: Added newline and disabled hard-coded line-wrap: [Attachment] 2. Sync description: Increa…

I am syncing files from a running VM (source A) to a Google Drive (Source B) When I launch the very same VM from another computer, syncing from the very same Google Drive, it wants…

I believe the drive must be accessible in order to determine the drive letter from a given volume GUID.

[Attachment]Is there a resolution for this problem? I'm using Ubuntu 24.04. I like the interface of FFS quite a bit, but on a 4K screen with 150% fractional scaling, the icons are …

Ok..thx.

Hello, I use FreeFileSync to backup files from my Windows 10 to a NTFS external drive connected to a QNAP. I use sFTP protocol to copy files and I get an error everytime I try to t…

[Quote] Correct, but threads are very rarely going to result in a speed improvement. They only help artificially throttled transfers

I have not actually used these, except for Mega for 1 quick test. I cannot speak to the performance. You will need to try and see if it works well enough for you. Clouds supported …

I periodically, haphazardly, compare files for "exactness". There have been times that files did not compare - which I find very odd. And I make notes (haphazardly ;-)) of such occ…

Thanks.

[Quote] Ah yes, input from another person who wasn't happy when I requested accurate and useful information in an effort to assist them. Thanks for the advice pal Since you only wa…

Hello, I would agree with rgreat. There are many reasons for using freefilesync I'm sure and you know better than me the most frequent usage. However, to sync my desktop and laptop…

Thanks. I didn't know something like this already existed. I searched the manual. [URL] And found about "Customize context menu" at "Menu → Tools → Options → Customize context menu…

Yes, that is the size issue. When you use text transfer, the windows version gets \r\n and the linux server just \n. [URL] I'm just FTPing into inmotion. I do this by creating an F…

Ah yes, the best business strategy: Drive small-time and open-source developers, along with their users, to your competition SMH, do I smell OneDrive integration on the horizon? ;)

It should be super strange if they won't have an API for getting hashsums, that's basic stuff, and they show it in GUI, and the official GDrive client absolutely use it... Anyway, …

[Quote] I'm glad to hear that! :D You wouldn't believe it, but there have been voices in the past that called the FFS GUI "antiquated".

[Quote] No, that's your superstition ;)

Nothing in the logs. Finally, I just renamed the sync.ffs_db to sync.ffs_db.old and now I when thru the sync normally.

Haha, please disregard my final comment above and disregard this request. It was late at night here when I wrote it and I woke this morning and realized the absurdity of my request…

That's just normal behavior. You can select any folder for versioning, doesn't matter if local, (S)FTP, MTP, or Google Drive: [URL]

Your picture suggests: • You have run the sync previously, at the end of which both sides were in sync. • You have since then removed the right-side folders Business\HDR'd and Hong…

I had the same thing, all white backgrounds. I fixed most of them by switching my GTK theme from BlackMATE to Breeze-Dark . A couple other dark themes looked good, too, but I prefe…

I'm sorry you feel that way. At no point in my posts was I rude. I wrote a neutral statement saying "Sorry, I'm not looking for workarounds-" and when you insisted nonetheless, I r…

Woohoo, glad it's working

This is intended behavior. Clicking the sync button only runs a comparison once. Once a comparison is run, the results are used for the sync until another comparison is run, no mat…
