FreeFileSync Forum

Thanks, it works!

When i use "file FreeFileSync_12.2-Linux.run" then it results me in 32-bit ELF format. S the executable contains only 32bit version.

Isn't that done automatically? Tools | Options -> Default log folder:

According to the following article, Finder comments are stored in both .DS_Store and a file's extended attributes. [URL] • .DS_Store is excluded by FFS by default, but you can chan…

Thanks for coming back to me so quickly! I cannot completely rule out that my setup has instabilities with such relatively large uploads. I could split my backup file to reduce the…

Solved. The problem was a corrupted database in pCloud client. Recreated it and all these problems disappeared. I'm sorry I doubted of FFS! You know, when the problem is on the int…

Thanks All! That is what I was looking for!

You technically could. The risk is that two things could happen: 1) If using mirror, those versioned files wouldn't exist on the source, thus get deleted 2) If using two-way, those…

The last time I wrote BAT files was maybe 1993. Guess I'm gonna have to do a little studying.

RTS does not have sources or targets, it just has folders to watch for changes. If a change occurs in one of the locations, it runs the command at the bottom. [URL] Create a sync c…

[Quote] Perfect, thanks for your response. I tried that and it worked well.

Nevermind. I have to run synchronize even if no file has to be synchronized to have the sign go away. Sorry for the noise.

[Quote] Sync and then deduplicate the destination

I don't think you'll get banned for putting too much strain on Google Drive. Instead you'll get "quota exceeded" errors: [Quote] [URL]

> ... I want instantaneous sync Apparently not, because you want to have the opportunity to change the filename first. The only option is then to create the file in a folder that i…

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I did end up solving the issue by running FFS as administrator. I'm not sure why this is necessary though, when the permissions are set correctly. Pr…

I have just, somehow, sorted out the issue. I don't know how, but for now its working. Thank you all for your help.

This should work natively in FFS if it's a valid path

They release every 3-4 on average, and we are 5 weeks out since 12.1 Probably buttoning up some bigfixes

Same issue and also same use case 😀 Thanks for the workaround 👍

Hello, Thanks @Zenji for making such a reliable program. I recently made a donation edition purchase. I had a 2 questions: 1. Does Free File Sync work well with Git Files? (.git fo…

Thanks @Plerry, your explanation is consistent with my own observations and I was about to implement such a script when I decided to double-check that there was not other built-in …

Ok, I got it figured out :)

Your explanation makes sense. I clicked the link you included and saw the example. That will work perfectly for my situation and will save a TON of time. Thanks, very much!

Thanks for your response. The Z drive is a mapped drive over our local lan from a second pc that my wife uses, which is also running Win10 with associated recycle bin. All I want t…

Hi, I use FFS on Debian with gnome windowmanager. I have installed an gnome-extension to display tray icons. This all works well. For my daily task (keep roughly 50000 files on two…

Hi, Thank you for your reply. Yeah, actually, initially I installed the Flatpak version, that is what actually led me to this thread... then I decided to uninstall it and install t…

Thank you.....it is working. Very happy.

A-ha. I just redid it with junction points and it’s working. Thank you!

[Quote] You're right man, thanks. I was in a rush when I read the instructions, I'll try it later.

The Mint version shows the window above. I took an online tar.gz version and everything runs now.

There is an easy way. On the left side, select the source local folder you want to sync to Google. On the right side, select the little cloud icon. This will bring up the window wh…

Yes I know it should work as per manual as that is what I followed originaly and it worked happily for many months. Only recently has it stopped working but I did not notice it had…

Sure, you just create a separate connection profile for each account, with the appropriate credentials.

Duh! Buried in the list of exclusions was this one ... *\*.fit Thank you!

Well a user may want to change that setting depending on which sync config they are using, so keeping in the config settings makes sense

OK, Problem solved. I decided to do a clean install of Ubuntu, which does not support flatpak, or have FreeFileSync in its software repository. I downloaded the installer from here…

Wired on gigabit ethernet.

si sera muy bueno

Run a compare, right-click the offending item, click exclude

It's a program that you download, it tells you where your space is being used

I just downloaded it several times but it never worked. But now it worked. seems that it was indeed a temporary glitch. Thanks

Thanks!

> So to be sure I understand. ... That's right ? Yep! But be aware: this not just applies if you use RTS to run an FFS sync; the same holds if you use RTS to launch e.g. a Python s…
