FreeFileSync Forum

Ilibssh2_sftp_open is called at the beginnig of the file transfer. I don't understand how this could be related to an error after 2 GB were already transfered.

Cool, thanks for posting your solution.

There is an issue with the CDN (Cloudflare) not supporting half-closed TCP connections as currently employed by FFS on Linux/macOS. Unfortunately this needs an update of client cod…

I was able to do it via IE instead of chrome. I'm at work so its possible its the browser or the firewall but not likely on your end at all.

menu -> tools -> options: show hidden dialogs again

Plerry, Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.

Hangs the program. I have to go into Task Manager and end the 'non responding' program FFS

Open the Task Manager, identify the RealTimeSync task and then kill it. There may also be other methods.

In FFS you can use Mirror syncs in combination with [URL].

That entire paragraph makes no sense. Please rewrite that with proper grammar so someone can help you

I've created a batch with FreeFileSync for RealTimeSync. This batch file only syncs the files created when the batch was not running and files created after the batch has started w…

Hi, I donated and got the latest donate version, but I'm stuck with 10.11 because I need to run it on 2003... Any way to get the older 10.11 donate?

I just would like to chime in and add that most of the errors I had months ago have disappeared from recent versions of FreeFileSync. The last ones remaining are few and all pop up…

There is SPI Firewall but turning that off didn't change anything.

Dear All, I have the following problem: I have synchronised / mirrored one HDD with > 2 TB with FreeFileSync: all ok. After some changes in the basis HDD I wanted to update the mir…

I'm having trouble with realtimesync on Windows Server 2012. I have a scheduled task that starts on computer bootup that starts realtimesync which in turn runs a batch job. It used…

Nearly 2 years later, I get the same problem on a Galaxy Tab-E from Windows 10. FreeFileSync_10.13_Windows_Setup.exe FFS is too unreliable for an overnight scheduled task for Andro…

I suppose that my problem is caused on computer 2. That is a laptop with Windows 10 (NTFS) AND Linux Mint. Both systems act on the same file system. I prefer Linux, but sometimes I…

Cloud storage also does its own syncing and other processes that can slow down file transfers. Large files will transfer faster than many small files as well

That is not currently an option. You can only overwrite or do nothing to the target file if the source is newer.

Sounded like a corrupt flash drive, but if you can't even format it anymore, it may have corrupted the flash controller. I would be doubtful though. If diskpart can't run a clean c…

See e.g. [URL]. What is written there applies equally well for FTP as for SFTP.

These definitions only apply to Mirror or Update sync variants. And then left is the source and right the target. For a Two-way and a Custom sync variant source and target may vary…

I am probably being very stupid! I have run a daily batch job using Free File Sync for years. I have just set up Free File Sync on a new machine (Windows 10, 7 before) and cannot f…

Basically it looks like you need multiple tasks but you can set them up in such a way that they are executed, one after the other, via a single sync operation. You could tinker wit…

I'm still stumped by this. Can anyone offer anything to explain the discrepancy i'm seeing? thanks

Perhaps you've set "Ignore errors" in sync settings.

Fixed! Had to install the following: sudo apt install libgtk2.0-0 sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module Then it loads ok

The new version is detecting as a Trojan in both HitmanPro and Windows Defender! Picture attached

Don't worry. I have found the setting. I was looking in the wrong place. Sorry.

Actually, now I see that yes, apparently this is caused by strange files that some computers show as having backslashes in their filename. You can probably ignore this issue.

Hi Plerry Thats great thanks for your very detailed reply, that makes sense! :)

Good luck finding a solution to your problem somewhere else. With your kind of social skills you'll need it.

Hi, As a matter of fact I upgraded Jessie to Stretch 32 bit. Surprised it worked as that is sometimes a job that can be a little unreliable. I don't think buster has 32 bit so my o…

I would like to use FFS Pro to move files from a specific directory (including its subdirectories) from one drive to another. I would then want to delete the files in the source di…

What is funny - same Samba-Host, same Share, same Windows client using Notepad++ on the same triggerfile used for RealTimeSync.exe - Notepadd++ detects any changes in the file imme…

Many thanks for the assistance!

I'm trying to transfer files to a new computer. I can't use FreeFileSync because I really, really need to present the timestamps of the folder. For general backup, FFS is great, an…

Hi Zenzu, I can confirm that the latest beta has resolved my issue entierly. Massive thanks for solving a very frustrating issue!

The problem is gone with Windows 10 version 1903.

Really nobody? :(

Hey! Thank you for all the advice. By disabling the "Run with highest priviledges option" on WTS I seem to have gotten rid of errors in the FFS logs. I will monitor how the automat…

[Quote] FFS is testing if the folder exists once more before starting sync, but the Windows API call did not respond in time, which is quite peculiar for a local path like "C:\User…

Got info via email today that Bitdefender has fixed whatever it was that caused their false-positive detection of FFS 10.12: [Quote]

Thanks for your reply. The changer occur on both sides, that's the problem. If they only happened locally, I would have no problem to ask for a help with. That would be very simple…

Thank you for the Clarification. I think this is even more confusing to a User. As this issue is now back I will go back to your last message in the other thread, but not before ne…

Looks like you forgot a " somewhere.

Thank you, the buttons at the bottom allowed me to see all the files if I want to.
