The test run just fine! Thank you!

[Quote] I take it that L: is a mapped drive letter. Mapped drive letters exist under a user context. And when you "run as administrator", you are no longer you, so the mapped drive…

How to completely remove the program? I didn't like the program. How to completely remove it in Ubuntu? Why did the developer in the installer itself not provide for the correct re…

Still, FFS should have shown an error message for this, rather than ignore it. Fixed in FFS 11.17.

[Quote] Thanks. Edit: If someone with the same question comes around: FolderChangesView from Nirsoft can do that job. It is more complicated to configure but more flexible.

Many thanks for your answer!

Granting permissions has no effect, permissions are denied outright and cannot be granted Then I directly restarted the computer, the permissions are normal, and I can directly del…

Great, Thanks!

Thanks

Thanks I can select the files okay I just wanted to put them all in one folder instead of taking the whole directory structure with it. Anyway, thanks for you prompt response, it h…

Brilliant. I joined the forums to search this exact issue. First rerun of FFS showed an xml parsing error, but I closed and reloaded and it's all great.

Issue should be fixed now! [URL]

You are best off creating a dedicated folder on the target drive that you mirror the source drive to. Otherwise, you will have to tirelessly audit your filters which will only get …

Woohoo! As long as you got it to work, I don't care how you got there!

Thank you! You're knowlesge is impressive.

Dear Supporting team, I am using Windows 10 system. I have installed FreeFileSync 11.15. Today, I discover that the filesync tasks create many processes running in Task Manager. Pl…

Yes, it can't be done, I don't doubt your skills! It just how Windows handles it, that's all. Glad it's working for you, here to help!

What are you syncing to/from? Is that USB drive using a hub that is shared with one of those devices?

thanks for quick feedback, got it and clear!

Hello. An error occurred in FreeFileSync 11.15; 11.14 Windows -------------------------------------------------- ------------- CURLE_SSL_CONNECT_ERROR: error: 0A0C0103: SSL routine…

FFS will saturate my 10gb network easily, so definitely not a problem with FFS

Ok, some things get solved quickly - I only had to move the key file to the very same location as the setup file, and then everything worked properly. Thanks anyway.

Basically RTS just sees the change and runs a compare/sync on that FFS config, which you have set to compare all those locations at the same time. As Plerry said, break them up int…

Wow, thank you so much for your help. It worked! Now I am able to synchronize folder pairs via SSH.

Thanks for your reply. I have already been there and made some modifications, but now I noticed that I can/must load the global settings via the Default button for them to be activ…

It's been a while so I've forgotten exactly what the reasoning was. One thing I would guess is that we generally like to leave as minimal an impact on the system and be able to do …

Have you tried anything to troubleshoot?

I believe, that on a sync, if the To directory does not exist, you'll get that message. Similarly, if you've renamed/moved the To directory, it "does not exist" (in the sense that …

Thanks for this -- looks as if it can't be done in an automated way, so I ended up doing it manually with reference to an exported file list. Cheers

I would start with the manual. [URL]

Well it divides out to 1.67€ for a single month. I don't think anyone has done it and reported back lol I would say go for it

I also just realized you are passing a ffs_real config to RTS in the command... Why are you doing this? Is that on purpose?? Read the manual page I linked for the RTS setup steps

If you have a hard time finding the correct Filter definitions, try running a Compare, and then right-click the file or folder to be added to the Filter, and select the correct act…

Thank you, … still the number of devices is three allthough all removed and not running on my system anymore (some of them are version ....15 ....)

gdawg says "I can see the path in the last log recorded, but I can’t seem to find a way to access the files in the bin." I think my previous message is not the right way. The logs …

FFS 11.16 doesn't map "Command+W" to swap anymore: [URL]

Many thanks!

That's it - the backup drive moved from /mnt/ to /media/. Solved! Thanks.

Adding info for future readers: The number of devices can't be lower than 3.

Is it possible at all to set file modification times for this GVFS volume? e.g. via "touch" or "cp --preserve=timestamps"? If the answer is "yes", then maybe there exists a workaro…

In the default configuration when you select 2 folders to compare it creates a file titled "sync.ffs_lock" to avoid another user from attempting to update the folder(s) when the sy…

OH, one other thing I had to change back. I had set it to run daily in Task Scheduler. It didn't like that and said 'administrator refused request' I had to change it back to 'Run …

[Quote] Fixed. in FFS 11.16 it will be possible to select a broken config file, and to remove it.

See if [URL] release changes anything?

What was it that you did that worked?
