I installed the most recent version of FFS so maybe the fix wasn't applied after all?

Well I definitely do not have the donation version. I shall have to contact the developer. Thank you for your assistance.

Choose "Save as" and overwrite the batch file

Thank you all for the suggestions but my sense is the Mac version of FFS is not fully baked.. So, I ended up leaving FFS and now use Cloud Berry Backup - runs fast, works perfectly…

(You could set up folder pairs. But with 500 of them, I doubt the program would take that many? Not to mention I doubt you'd want to actually do the setting up ;-).)

yes, that helped this time, many thanks.

Realizing this is a zombie thread, but since I was just searching up the same thing... You can hit the little arrow button immediately to the right of the "Compare" button atop you…

Thanks a lot, that worked great for me too !

To add, that conflict usually only happens if the file has changed in both the destination and source since the last time you ran the sync

Never mind - I found the email. Thanks for responding.

Thank you! That fixed it!

See, trailing slash (/), [URL]

Thanks for responding, I figured it out last night. I needed to install an additional windows networking feature. I can't remember exactly what it was called but everything is work…

I use a couple pairs/combinations of mirrors with multiple filters to deal with people added videos to a shared photo folder, but they are all using mirror

i just tried an install of the package you mentioned and it was already installed: check out my terminal output bellow.. i'm planning to do a fresh install and will test out to onl…

Solved my own problem. I did not realize that comparing contents will also compare timestamps and touch those accordingly rather than do a full move/copy.

So I'm using FFS with RealTimeSync to mirror my main drive to a second internal one. And it works great, I also mirror some data to my Dropbox folder but (many times a day) I get e…

I found something. On the one "configuration" that leaves empty folders the to and from are: "D:\Musikk\" and "F:\Music\". On the ones that have no trouble (tested one now and veri…

(Heh. Didn't even know it did license checks.) (On Windows) maybe something like [URL] (which might point out an IP) would be sufficient?

Thanks Zenju - this was the problem: "If you have mapped a network share to a local drive letter, and have set up Windows Task Scheduler to use a different user account, FreeFileSy…

You probably don't. You may have 5 versions of fileabc.txt that are from a month ago, but since there are only 5 versions, it hasn't hit the max yet. I'm not sure if FFS removes em…

[Quote] Thanks for letting me know. I'll have FFS ignore EIO in this case because F_PREALLOCATE is only "nice to have".

What if you create a batch script that runs the command you just manually ran in cmd, then have task scheduler run that batch script instead of the command itself?

By selecting a configuration and then right-clicking, you get some options. The sequence in which configurations are sorted can be changed by clicking in one of the header fields

[Quote] Thank you, I've added that to my exclusion list that should be the cause of the error. I'll let it continue on and see if I get any errors. Cheers! EDIT Just got the error …

Create two folder pairs, both with the NAS directory as the source and then one drive each, of course. You will have to use filters to include/exclude a subset of the source for on…

Bingo! Changed to Mirror and all ran ok. Many thanks.

Thank you very much for the quick fix. V11.10 works now. And thank you for all the work you put into this great piece of software!

You can start a command when you logon ie: net use x: ...

My apologies xCSxXenon, I appreciate your response.

Ok, fair enough. Thanks for the reply anyway, ,much appreciated. :-) Steve

Check SMART data of the drive(s) using something like GSmart, disk sentinal, or crystalmarkinfo

It's absolutely perfect for my needs, thanks much once again for the reply!

Hi, I am going to report an unreleased file from the memory by FreeFileSync 11.8 and 11.9. I run a night Windows backup job on Windows server 2019 1809 build 17763.1823. The backup…

Pending an update with feature as requested above, I've created a manual solution. 1. AB - after sync is complete rename B .sync.ffs_db to another name such as machineA.sync.ffs_db…

Pardon the delay, I'm finally home and I am happy to report that 11.10 beta fixes it :) Thanks once more M. Zenju #resolved

Ah, I see the breakdown. We would have to wait for Zenju to chime in to find out if that is a possibility at all, and then whether or not it is feasible

Maybe the network card MAC addresses are unstable on WSL2? This could explain the symptoms. You can check with ip a

Also, that is a really old version of Android and may not be an issue on more recent versions.

By default, FFS includes all files for syncing. So what do you mean by "I tried to sync it with full name, not*, not*.*, *.ncdb but none worked."? Unless you changed the default in…

That's great, thank you! I can not delete or rename the *.jpg files, as they are not showing in the real H folder. They only show in the FFS interface. But I have disabled the opti…

Hello, please I too have same request for S/FTP... otherwise for large files FreeFIleSync unfortunately no longer becomes possible. It is a critical need. It is a perfect software …

Thanks for the reply. We have other protection in place but just thought this could be another layer. It's a great product!

It seems you are running FFS on a Windows machine and on a Linux machine. If I remember correctly, some FFS versions ago the sync.ffs_db file format was updated. If your Windows FF…

If you mirror your phone to PC there sould be no problem at all. Setting synchronization as 'Mirror' and not opting for 'Detect moved files' means FFS doesn't touch any file and do…

I've been using FreeFileSync for some time now without difficulty. As of today, I've got some permission problem. (Cannot read permissions of "D:\My Dropbox Backup\Backup". ERROR_E…

Yes, THANK YOU !! That fixed it. GB

Or overclocks. Generally it is a system instability issue. I would first reset your BIOS settings to defaults and even look for a BIOS update if that doesn't change anything.

Yeah, VPN setup all depends on support on the router. Keep data caps in mine, if applicable.
