Thanks :-) I defined 5 parallel operations on my ftp device but 20 on my local disc. I assumed that the 5 will be applied to synchronization as well, since I did not read this: [Co…

Does anybody have a installable download for Free File Sync for the Raspberry Pi 4 (or other Versions 1-3) ? A DEB File , for example, which i can install. In past i had many windo…

Oh my friend, worked smoothly, thank you so much. Did not know about that "=" opotion. Thank you again..

There us only one previous session that it shows. Everything under "last session" will be sync configuration files that you have saved as an independent job, or a batch job. If you…

Still a a nice to have in 2020!

Just check box simply enables that option. Min/max are the number of versions to keep, obviously max must be equal to or larger than minimum. And yes, it will keep them for 365 day…

In FFS, the settings for the sync jobs contains the options for a post-sync command. Oh yes, I do see the problem you described though. I'll keep pondering on hopefully finding a s…

Nope! FFS is a sync tool, not a duplicate finder. It will only compare between the left and right base location, and only compare identically named files in the identical (sub)fold…

Did more tests, thanks for the suggestions, after carefully checking the files it seems that indeed some of them are getting corrupted, in fact there is 0 bytes copied, but some we…

Thanks Plerry. I can follow that.

My servers are running without UI, so unfortunately this is no option for me. These are systems like a Synology NAS and a LibreElec on Raspi. Maybe this is use case is specific to …

Simply use the Mirror sync variant. See [URL].

@Zenju Thank you. The beta version solves my problem. Greetings.

Good morning I have an Ubuntu 20.4 (Samba server) with two disks on board (Main and BackUp) formatted in NTFS. Using FFS 11.3 for Linux I receive the message "Cannot write modifica…

is there a way to not ignore all errors but only all errors of the given (the error the popup is for) type? if an error occurs there is a popup which asks me to ignore only this er…

Considering FFS is a sync tool, it will most likely delete it off the backup if you delete it off the source. You should look at the different sync methods as they will tell you ex…

So one, arguably bad, AV flagged something while everything else says it's good? Make your own deduction. Comodo is, along with most third-party AVs, more harm than good and what w…

Ok makes sense. Looks like I'll have to go through this extra work. Thank you

i rolled back the version and re-updated and it looks like that worked im using the portable version so it may of lost connection or something --- they were all 0kb files that did …

Check if their is an update to your router's firmware too. They may have made a change to make capitalization more consistent

Great! I have been able to run the jobs pretty safely now. Thanks for the help.

Doesn't EXT use inode/IDs that aren't stable, thus can't be used for detection?

Yeah, the right side is less than a GB of data to be deleted, yet it's 20k files. Looks like temp/cache files that have been removed since syncing

Thanks Plerry, I'm working my way through versioning at the moment, I'll report back once I've tested it thoroughly.

Thankyou for your detailed reply, I didnt see my notifications prompting me that you had replied, so apologies for being late. I will try this when I am back at work tommorow. I un…

I never experienced this, and have run FFS syncs without any problems between FAT, FAT32, NTFS, EXT3 and EXT4 formatted media, each with different data-block sizes. As far as I kno…

Thanks. :)

I FINALLY got FreeFileSync (FFS) to work after months of trying ( :D :D :D doing happy dance :D :D :D :D )! Woohoo! I still don't know exactly what happened to get it working. I ke…

HI, I have been having very slow upload speeds to Dropbox (200k/sec), and have been in contact with Dropbox and they are saying it is related to FreeFileSync. I have attached the m…

cool thanks

Same problem as [URL], it seems.

Sure. Now if only someone had time to report it to them...

Ok ! It works. Many thanks for your help. Regards, Michel.

thanks a lot!

I had a similar issue where i have three pc's running manjaro and freefilesync runs ok on one pc. On the other two FFS would lock up comparing around the 50,000 file mark. The two …

I am using the command & $ffs $path$application$set1 with ffs being the executable and the rest parameters in Powershell. It works well, but I made many attempts to capture the exi…

What you can do, on Windows and easily, is create a mirror in disk management, quick format. Sync to the single volume it creates, then you can "break" the mirror. The data will be…

Make sure the scheduled task is run under user credentials of a user that has access to said folders. You define the user in the Task Scheduler in the General tab of the Properties…

I've tried again. And now it seems to work. Thanks a lot for all the help!

*.ost-files are normally locked while Outlook is running/open. Try closing Outlook and then sync again. Or try using [URL].

(I'll just note that the LastWriteTime on the "failed" version is also current time.)

I've created a batch file to copy a bunch of folders from and old server to a new one and it works great when running manually but when I scheduled it as a task and run it, the tas…

I tried your suggestion, but it didn't produce a crash dump.

Hi Plerry, Thank you so much! Files in both folders were identical and required no action. The "=" made these equal files visible. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for your input, a lot to digest, I also have one other suggestion. I'll look at the merits of both then decide. Thanks again

If there's an error sending the email, it will be in the log file.

Holy crap, that's actually genius...Trying to imagine your implementation was difficult, but I actually have a similar setup with 30-day data retention. I missed that the photo boo…
