FreeFileSync Forum

Thanks! High speed reply! You fix it with amazing efficiency! It works fine now! Wow

1. FFS won't delete files as a result of a failed read access on the source side. Only if the folder traversal is successful (= it didn't return any errors), FFS will assume an emp…

Thank you for the answer. One more question--how do I manually compile the provided source code on Windows?

Sounds strange, I'm not aware that there is some limitation on this field and typing @ also works for FireFox. Maybe this limitation is caused by your browser?

Check the options that you chose when you set up the batch job: [URL] I get a FreeFileSync window for all my batch jobs which I'm pretty sure have the settings shown in the first s…

I want to sync by content and then 'touch' all files to mirror their modification time. Is there a way to do this in one fell swoop rather than by two separate compares? Thank you.

There seems to be a file missing: cp: cannot stat 'Build/styles.gtk_rc': No such file or directory FFS 8.0 that is.

I run Linux Lite 2.8, which is based on ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr) x64. I currently use FFS 6.x and it's working great. I'm fairly new to linux and don't want to upset anything. Do…

Warnings are always logged. The global setting only determines if a popup should be shown in addition. This behavior is similar to ignored errors, which are also logged.

You can set [URL].

Looks like an ordinary out of memory. One way to get around it is to split the sync job into smaller tasks. [URL]

Worked after disabling Kaspersky Total Security during install.

Oke I have found the option in the save as batch job :) Just click Ignore.

I just installed FFS on OSX El Capitan, first time, completely new. Dragged FFS.app to /Applications, and opened the app. I see a nice screen. Clicking "Open" brings up a file choo…

Hi, im using the tool FreeFileSync Ver. 6.1 After the Run i can see a new File at the Folders. It´s called "sync.ffs_db" The Tool FreeFileSync is already closed... but the new File…

How can I manually compile FreeFileSync's source code on Windows? I see no instructions on a README file when examining the zipped code.

Hello sadly no I am only getting between 4-5 mbps, my connection currently supports between 17-20 mbps and I get them with filezilla via SFTP Regards

thanx Zenju for the confirmation! i already thought it was a problem with Comodo and certainly not a bug in FFS, and searching their forum makes it very clear; seems to be an "old"…

The obvious next step is to do a binary comparison and see which bytes differ. This could give a clue to what application did the changes.

Also, when you exclude a subfolder by unticking its check box, I get that to mean FFS is not going to process the subfoder at all, not even for determining what subfolders should b…

If the remote computer (e.g. a NAS) does not have recycle-bin capabilities, you can not make it available. However, instead of selecting the recycle-bin option in FFS for "file del…

This is not a FFS dump file but an operating system crash dump file. It is not a problem caused by FFS (OS crashes are caused by driver or OS bugs but never by user-mode applicatio…

I have been using FreeFileSync for quiet a while in Windows an Linux environments and i am quite happy with the software, its has been evolving steadily, though, being a Systems In…

Hi 1st post here Im on linux mint 17.3 having difficulty with gnome scheduler this is my command /usr/bin/FreeFileSync '/home/ant/bak2.ffs_batch' and set to x application and it wo…

Adding a topic to specifically request SFTP support for public/private key authorization. I apologize if an update for this already exists somewhere.

Hi, Have you tried using pogoplug Drive application ? [URL]

[Quote]You should just monitor the relevant subdirectories. It makes no sense to have RTS trigger FFS caused by changes in locations that are not part of the sync. If you run a FFS…

Currently FFS is marked as high dpi aware and looks okay at 125% scaling, but obviously not at 250%. Maybe it's better to use the default upscaling for non-dpi-aware apps? [URL]

You can send me a [URL] then I can tell what FFS was doing during the hang.

Scanning every one/two days isn't even remotely what could be considered "heavy use". In any case if you're worried that you might lose data when a hard drive crashes, you probably…

Can you paste the error message that you are seeing?

[Quote] FreeFileSync's SFTP implementation requires Windows Vista or later.

[Quote][Quote]Both of you seem to be mixing up things. ReatimeSync (RTS) will monitor for changes, and then launch a specified application, typically FreeFileSync (FFS). In case of…

I even reinstalled FFS7.6 without any difference in speed. What seems weird to me is this "magic number" of 160,000 files. It always begins to slow down when reaching this number o…

this problem was because the FFS could not see the NAS folder location solution was. create a login item on the mac to open the NAS folder upon login, the FFS could see the NAS fol…

these instructions worked as Plerry said, thanks Plerry!

The setting is surely evaluated but you might be experiencing a problem like this one: [URL]

I used "textedit" on my Macbook (El Capitan) to make the change on the "LockDirectoriesDuringSync" programming line. I changed the value from "true" to "false". I then tried to use…
