I forgot to mention that the problem concerns the old backups with versioning.

That is not currently possible. You would have to exclude all the "extra" data that already exists on 'B' when syncing up to the cloud/USB from 'A'. It would possible, just convolu…

I discovered my issue.... Typo in the drive name

Facing same issue. I am trying to make donations using PayPal and I prefer only PayPal rather than sharing credit card details anywhere online. May I know how can I resolve above i…

[Quote] Can you share the Process Monitor log?

I have tried to use FFS on fedora 34. I cannot access to phone folders through FFS using native mtp protocol. I have then installed simple-mtpfs and I can successfully get to mount…

Then I'm at a loss regarding what else to try. I would need to see a real test server that exhibits this "unexpected eof while reading" to debug this.

I did wonder about that - but don't know enough about it, so was just grateful that it started to work reliably. Are there any other test you would like me to carry out (in the int…

Why? RTS waits until the directories are not being used any more before syncing.

Thank you my friends for that advice. I am the only one using this PC so clicking "Ignore" should = no risk. After I am satisfied that clicking "Ignore" works, maybe I will try Ple…

Hi, we are using FFS already for years under MAC OS with no problems at all - even synchronizing serverbackups up to 20 TB was running smooth. Now, on a M1 iMAC (Big Sur) and after…

No sorry. The list is so long that I did not bother going through the difference. I suspect it does not copy over all the files, but I haven't had time to check it.

The change you'll want to make is not in Tools | Options, but rather, [URL].

[Quote] I wasn't a useless folder I'm afraid but I got round if finally by shutting everything down, restarting my PC deleting the folder on my backup drive and then re-syncing it …

merci :-)

Ah, that will do it! nice

Try the free version, I haven't seen anyone try that yet

Should the cron point to a .ffs_batch or should it point to a .ffs_real (which points, from within, to .ffs_batch) ?

Is Realtime only works for windows, the example only mention FreeFilesync.exe? The Mac so far does not work

UPDATE: If anymore else find this and are facing the same issue. This is now a known issue for Big Sur and SMB protocol. The workaround solutions are as follows: a) Change the comm…

Good! The page must have been broken lol

Instead of returning something like "04/08/2014 03:09 PM 11,399 readme.txt", the FTP server merely returned the string " _". Apparently a bug of the server. I'm wondering what File…

Well nothing of this is mentioned on the donation page. Who digs in the FAQs if there is no special need? This does not feel like fair play. Every work is worth something but play …

[Quote] I had previously installed the Donation version over the Free version, but the Free one was never removed. Since I am on a Mac, I did rm -rf /Applications/FreeFileSync.app,…

Well, this happened about the first time I tried to use FreeFileSync, and it hasn't happened again, so I can't reproduce it. It was also about my first experience with using NAS. I…

Awesome! Anytime

The server on which it is installed FreeFileSync_11.14_ [Donation_Edition] _Windows works on an intranet network, where Email notifications are impossible without its own local mai…

Bingo, basically you are syncing Phone\Pictures\DCIM and Phone\Pictures\Facebook to PC\Pictures so they aren't in sync. I, personally, would suggest syncing the whole phone's direc…

[URL] [URL] And many many more

After having failed to compile a few times, I found olvins's precompiled binaries, which worked fine. They are a bit old though (v. 11.3). It would be much appreciated if anyone co…

(Heh. Just got the same sort of warning on attempted install of an old version of Foxit Reader, EnterpriseFoxitReader545.0114_enu.msi, onto a Win10 system. [I don't really know Win…

[Quote] No, I don't. I didn't expect to waste 3 hours of my lifetime trying to get a rid of SW that collides with FFS and than needed to revert. Well, this is slightly a precedent …

Seems you can safely ignore those messages. [URL].

BULLSEYE! That was it. The reset cleared it up. Thank you!

Found it!

The same problem occurs. Please note that when I mapped the network drive for the first time, Windows asked me for the credentials and I input AirDisk and the password.

Retry option is located in comparison settings: [Image]

Did you read the [URL] and watch the [URL]?

[Quote] In my case I just need to copy the files created by me and which are in the /home directory (I use Linux). I don't need a copy of the hidden files, so I excluded the files …

What are your filters? Did you add the locations in FFS by clicking browse?

[URL]

This is a Linux-specific problem. Sockets and named pipes are special filetypes; they are used by the computer at run-time; they are not standard files that you would expect to sto…

What locations are you syncing? Screenshots are best.

In the gearwheel icon's menu I found the option to delete permanently. I am able to do the back up now.
