Good question, but I don’t appear to have to have logs or even that directory

[Quote] Just kind of bumping, cause this just threw me again (& it might help me remember ;-)). (Unsure if there were a more recent change, now at 11.29, that made this "crop up" a…

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my query.

Yes, seems ok now.

Sounds like whatever FFS is trying to write to is having an issue

There is something wrong with "/app/extra/FreeFileSync/FreeFileSync" because the Terminal sais "didn't find path or file"... The second part is correct: "/home/markus/Daten1/Office…

Shrug, idk. I'd edit a file with gedit on the linux machine and Save. RTS wouldn't catch it, no matter how long I waited. If I edited that same file (or any) in notepad in Windows,…

[Quote] That did the trick! Thank you!

Next time this happens, please post the exact error message you're seeing in the terminal. The FreeFileSync launcher could parse this and give a more helpful error message instead,…

I decided to use the flatpak installation. That works. Thanks

[Quote] The filter solution worked like a charm! Thank you so much!

lol, not the same at all, but whatever. You're allowed to be wrong I guess

Thanks! *Solved*

How can it know what to sync without comparing the locations? You can just click "synchronize" and it will do it all in one click, if that's what your problem is with

That should remove that directory... Just filter it out in FFS settings, it's in the default exclusions for a reason

Glad it's fixed, and it was something simple!

Run a compare, right-click the directory you want to exclude, go to to "exclude" and select an option

In line with the [URL], you could add *- Copy* to your Exclude Filter. This will exclude all files and folders (and their content!) that have "- Copy" in their name.

Oh yes! ;) Works!
