Found the error, was my mistake. Question is settled. benny

Hello, I've recently been getting this each time RealTimeSync tries to sync files; [Installation files are corrupted. Please reinstall FreeFileSync. Installation was registered on …

Hi, I answered my own question. It was not clear I had to run the .ffs_real file first. I can do this manually or by adding it at Startup folder. Now when I plug in, the sync start…

0x1 means that the called EXE file has stopped abnormal i. e. If you call a VBS script with cscript.exe or wscript.exe and you kill the EXE process in the task manager without wait…

[Quote] Of course! It took me some time to figure out what you were talking about, because I was constantly thinking about archived versions--those versions that go in the director…

Apparently in your Synchronization settings (F8) you have set your Delete Files method to Recycle-bin. Simply change that into Permanent and your warning should be gone. Obviously,…

Every time I start windows, I start syncing (as in RealTimeSync tutorials), but it takes 2 hours each time (every time I repeat it) and I can not make any changes. In case I'm wron…

I' don't think this suggestion applies to a Nautilus mount of a Samsung phone. sudo mount -t cifs -o username=<name on SMB server>,password=<...>,\ gid=1000,uid=1000 \ //<IP of Sam…

Dear, The Freefilesync created a file with the extension .ffs_tmp with 17GB! The worst is that it tries to synchronize and stays for hours trying. Why does this occur? Thanks in ad…

I had the same problem, and 10.4 solved it for me too. OS - Windows 10 (1308). Brilliant. Thank you.

Why has FFS started deleting files that it should not delete and putting them in a file called RecycleBin.bc23.ffs_tmp? This is new and has cost me much. None of my batches that de…

1) process elevation and folder permissions are unrelated topics. 2) This is Windows "User Interface Privilege Isolation" in action: [URL]

I didn't. But when I look at it now, I see where I have 9,310 files on the left side and 9,118 files on the right side. Glancing through the files on the right side, I see that the…

Hi Plerry, thank you for this detailed answer. Yes, you're right. I'm using FreeFileSync with Windows. I know, that Windows can save the credentials in the credentials manager. I f…

Dear, From time to time the program enters the state "Examining" and this state lasts for hours! During this process, at the top of the screen is the message: Waiting while the dir…

That is exactly why you have the choice to define what should happen in case (different) files exist on the left- and right-side.

I started getting i/O errors and eventually discovered that the target hard drive in the file folder pairs had developed a corrupted partition table. It took me a long time to find…

Now the command is as follows: [Code] And the result: [Code] Hope you have an idea.

[Quote] Yes, this has been implemented in FreeFileSync 10.3.

Hi Solved with specific mount command instead of automatic mount from Nautilus sudo mount -t cifs -o username=<name on SMB server>,password=<...>,\ gid=1000,uid=1000 \ //<IP of Sam…

Hi, suddenly it takes about 7h for syncing 800 MB. There seems to be something completely wrong. cheers Eric

Actualy I need FTPS (ssl/tls) Nothing more nothing less.

Hello, After sync i got multiple duplicate files. I attached my log. "DOSYA TESLİM TUTANAĞI" files are duplicates. I'm using sync from one folder to another with mirror. But i got …

Hi, I've already paid to help development and get the donation edition. When i launched the 10.2 version this morning, it claimed that there's 10.3 donation edition available onlin…

I'm using FFS for some month now and have to relalise that there must be a serious issue in the way I'm using it or in the way it works. The reason is that loads of original files …

This behavior will change in 10.4: [URL]

I have been trying to sync a local folder with a folder on my WDMyCloud drive. The folder is private. I have tried every possible way... any help would be apreciated.

Hi, I have musics on my PC encoded in FLAC, and the same musics on my smartphone encoded in AAC. When i delete a music on one of this peripherics i would like to synchronize this d…

Hi, I would like build the source code of V10.3 for Windows 64 or 32 Bit as target. What for a compiler, tools etc. are neccessary for compiling the source code. Is here a instruct…

Hi Plerry, Thanks very much indeed for this advice. It appears I haven't properly understood how to use the program. This may solve the issue in an unexpected way and bring other b…

I have bought a notebook with Endless OS. And I have a Windows computer in my home network as a NAS. I configured access to computer HDDs from the notebook and I can copy files&fol…

errorlevel 1 comes with the change to 10.3. My script showed me the old logfile before change, and not the new one with your logpath-warning. volker01

Thank you very much. Now it works. :)

Can you help please, I'm at a loss to understand how to replace the COMMAND_TO_TRACE with something sensible, surely it can't be freefilesync? I’m getting a file copy error, FFS fi…

Thanks for the reply! Comparing by size may be problematic so I will not set it this way. I'd rather take a look at another firmware for my TP-Link Archer C50 router. Perhaps OpenW…

The problem is a combined failure of both libssh2 (which FreeFileSync is using) and the macOS SFTP server: The SFTP server thinks the target file is already existing, hence "LIBSSH…

I have write access to both locations. They are both local.

If you define a single FFS job having two (here identical) left-right folder pairs (as per the above example), the sync is just a single instance of FFS. If you would define it as …

Thank you for the fast response Zenju! I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction. For the "Two Way Synchronization" to work, both laptops will have to be on a network tog…

HI all, maybe my question was already raised up in the past but I'm new at this forum. With my donated version of FFS I want to synchronize two folders (one is my Laptop folder, se…

Hello, I am new to this software but I ran into a bug and though that I should report it. I hope that this is the correct place to post this. I am running Mac 10.11.6 . As a test I…

[Quote] To bypass this, I set the sync settings so that FFS does nothing to files which are newer on the right side.
