update: 8.9 - no problem 8.4-8.5 still had this problem, 8.6-8.8 didn't try

Might be AV software: [URL]

The profiles and settings should work when you move up to another version. It did for me.

Nevermind, it was just me! I had a Powershell script running to email the log file and the log file was still in-use. Thanks to anyone who gave my issue a look and a thought.

As per subject: I have an USB HD on which I backup my local files. When connected via local USB, compare by file time and size gives me different results than when connected via a …

[Quote]First, it gives more flexibility and flexibility is always good. Second, it would really help my backup chores but to explain this in detail would be overly tedious. As I've…

The launchpad repository is currently unmaintained, however you can download the 32-bit Debian release from [URL]

Dear all, i have created a batch that creates every time a log file , my problem is that in that file there are the files that have been synced and the files that have failed witho…

I'm familiar with USBDLM and used it in the past. FFS works perfectly on a windows 7 box, just refuses to work on windows 10

Hello, I want to synchronize between a folder with compressed files and an uncompressed folder. If I copy the files with Windows, they are stored uncompressed in the uncompressed f…

This is how to update FFS in Ubuntu from the provided .tar.gz file: Unpack the file using the default archiver program This will create the FreeFileSync folder (normally in same lo…

[Quote] Seems to be the same as [URL]

Thanks ever so much Plerry :) I will do that. (Hmmm.... seems I need to spellcheck my Topic Title as well as my posts content)

That is a option. Thank you. But I can´t really understand how you use a Sync Tool when it in fact does not sync it all the way. If you have for example, an USB Stick. Maybe for th…

Great. Thanks!

Hello, I must be making the same mistake over and over. All I want to do is keep a few folders syncd. I am using two hard drives. I can't just point the right folder to an empty fo…

Using a deletion handling other than "recycle bin" will avoid the warning.

Thanks a lot for the quick response! Wish FFS better and better.

Can you try the following version and see if the problem persists? [URL]

Hi, I proposed to make .deb packages which are more userfriendly... Look at my private message. I just added .desktop and folder architecture, then packed it with debreate.

whooops sorry, I was wrong. The error is, my Android server application OR Netdrive bug messes up the dates. You can delete this thread ^^

More on the last message: I access that disk with Administrator rights

[Quote] My NAS is WD MyCloud model, it is accessed by SMB protocol and I think that is why FFS cannot make any file hidden. Thank you, Zenju

How about simply typing the drive+path, or dragging the folder from e.g. Windows Explorer to the left or right location position in the FFS GUI.

Can you download FFS 8.8 from the homepage again? This looks like a last-minute bug that I've already fixed shortly after the release.

because i haven't thought about that before. it works. thanks. i have to use a tool called autorunner though, because win7 doesn't support autorun.inf.

Thanks for the Reply and your time... What I am trying to do is find an alternative sync application that works very similar to a Paid/Licensed sync program we currently use. To av…

The source package lacks build instructions, but I have met most or all dependencies. I am trying to build FFS 8.8 on a fully updated Cygwin64 system. The first error that does not…

I installed SFTP onto my Android, it looks much faster, still some errors happen

Ok I found that libunity.so.9 is included into the libunity9 package so I installed it. sudo apt update sudo apt install libunity9 Now FreeFileSynk works fine.

Hi All, new here, Im having samba issues too. I wanted to add english translation for OP here [Quote] Ahh i see your solution now, didnt see it earlier, Ill check how i have it mou…

Best solution is to notify your IT department which is responsible for the proxy software and tell them to fix the "soft HTTP failure" and fail with the proper HTTP error code. As …

I think I had crashes similar to those described above. Though, before such problems was not. Why it seems to me that this may be due to the fact that I switched to a new proxy (ad…

In the sync settings window (F8), bottom left, you can define your preference for error handling: Ignore or Pop-up

[URL] is the one I used before
