I have a Android-based music player with two MicroSD slots. Within Windows it identifies: 1) Internal Storage 2) MicroSD card 1 3) MicroSD card 2 under the device "DP-X1" (my music…

Zenju, the problem is not FFS, it is within Android 442, all available methods to fix the write permission to the external card achieve limited success. Somehow FFS cannot bypass A…

As far as FreeFileSync is concerned these are your options: [URL]

[Quote] Yes, but not "Please use FreeFileSync 64-bit version", correct? What is the full error message? [Quote] This cannot be the solution. You're on Server 2012, this means FFS w…

We have same problem with FFS 8.1. We noticed that when install.dat file is older than six days you will get error message. If you create new FFS portable (new install.dat) you can…

Hi, I would really like the same, either a version that is already compiled for Raspberry or a good description on how to do the compilation. br Palle

Hi, i can't compile FreeFileSync 8.1 on Fedora 23. Thanks for help Michael

You could use Versioning as the Deletion Method. See [URL]

Apparently @webmaster33 does not clearly understand the include-and exclude-filters in FFS: [URL] "Files and directories are only considered for synchronization if they pass all fi…

On my research for a solution I already did so. There were no errors; there was no log. Strangely strange: this weekend the task ran, like it does every week and the log was there.…

I'm reporting back that this now mostly works. I donated and downloaded v8.1. I installed it on my home machine in "portable" mode. I then copied the install directory to a flash d…

Nonetheless possibility to synchronise to cloud would be very nice feature (and I would use it - OneDrive in my case - to synchronise specific folders). According to other forum, f…
