So are you using RealTimeSync.exe ? If so, what is the command line (or otherwise) that you are using for it? Or are you simply clicking (or similar) xxx.ffs_batch? And you're sayi…

[Quote] Thank you! It works really.

You (thbenner) do not make your intentions very clear . If the only thing you want to sync is everything in C:\Users\[User]\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook\, you can simply defin…

a one month update interval? really. OK a buck a month is fair. It's worth more but it's all I can afford.

(A little bit on [URL].) For reference, [URL].

Note that RTS has an idle time, not a delay time or monitoring time. See [URL] and [URL]. I am not sure what exactly happens when setting the idle time to zero, but it seems leavin…
