I suppose your "first backup" started with an essentially empty backup location and involved copying over the content of the source location to the backup location. In which case t…

I set it to 1 and after a restart I have the same slow comparison after approx. 50.000 files. Does the size of the sync.ffs_db has anything to do with it ? Can I increase the size …

I have begun my packaging efforts for CentOS and Fedora. It appears that for CentOS 7 and 8 and Fedora 29 do not have c++2a even when CentOS is using devtoolset-8. I think I will h…

Dear All! I would like to use RealTimeSync feature to set up an Automated Synchronization between the local folder on my laptop and another folder on a remote SPTP server, but when…

Thank you to all of you! I did think the culprit was FFS, but as Gianni suggested, I'll look towards Pcloud which is also active on these directories. Have a nice day.

I have a FFS_batch file that runs fine if you directly log in, run FFS as administrator, and click Synchronize. "Fail-safe" and "copy locked files" are both set in FFS. But the sam…

Will do. fwiw, life circumstances have precluded running any syncs for several months, so, this will give me the incentive to take some precautions and do so... perhaps later today…

Just tested some more... and noticed that if I make a complete sync, the extended attributes works. BUT, if i change the the COLOR LABEL in the Finder at the source > re-sync - the…

Thank for this simple reply. I did it and the following synchro worked. Thank you!

Doesn't [URL] answer your question?

I fail to see where having two directories differing by case only is a possibility? If that is a possibility, you are actually better off starting your filter one level shallower t…

The button is still there, are you sure you have identical files on both sides?

Based on how little we can see up top, the folder you are showing us is not set at the source directory in FFS

Nothing native to FFS. But, there may be a chain of things you can do to dynamically change the firewall on certain networks to block FFS from having internet access.

I'm running FFS 10.17 on Windows 10 with latest (November2019) updates syncing to a NAS Western Digital PR4100 with latest firmware (2.31.195). I recently updated to Adobe Photosho…

Great app, but I have small problem. I create a testFolder in A, with a color tag attached. if I sync, testFolder is created in B, with the proper color tag. If now, I change the c…

Hi all! Seems like the problem occurs already at some users, such like me ;-) Get the Error Code 267 by synchronisation from a webspace via ftp. What can I do myself to fix it? (I …

Thank you very much for the quick workaround. FFS now shows the full timestamps!

Try "*\#*.7z"

THX for you answer! I tried this - of course - before I postet my problem here! The "*" is - as you know - defaut, and other syntaxes like "*.gpx" didn't help anyway. I tried it on…

That is true, but of course understand the risks of permanent deletion. I use it all the time, but I have backups upon backups

Many thanks. Looks like exactly what I want.

many thanks.

Sorry for the imprecision. These color tags are on macOS: Finder -> File -> Tags I use them for a folder to indicate status of a job inside the given folder: blue -> ready, green -…

Delete "E:\shared\mattamy homes\FINAL BOULDER CREEK ENTRANCE MONUMENT 2-6-15.pdf" and try the sync again. See if the same file has an issue

The best way to make compares and syncs faster is to make the hardware faster on both sides. Faster storage access and upgrading networking is the best way. 1gb is the most common …

You could also increase page file on the server. I'm guessing it is set statically if programs are crashing

The portable version has no limit, as long as it is run from a "removable" device

[Quote] I figured it out. It is the cumulative update from 23.10.2019 with the number KB4522355. And it actually solves the problem. Thanks again for the hint.

Hello Plerry Thanks a lot! Indeed, this server is the first one of the three that accesses the NAS. I've created now a script on the NAS that will simply list the content of the sh…

Did you enter an incorrect network password when using FreeFileSync? Or was the password buffered by windows in one of your earlier network accesses, and it was not correct?
