Great, i got it ! Thanks, André

Nope, no go. Like before, FFS handles the location fine when syncing, but RTS still throws that error. Maybe if I give you more detail, it might help. This path is actually to a Po…

>In essence, after synchronization, you need to compare at least once more, to freeze file times of last modified files. Does FFS do this now? Or do I need to do this manually? Als…

Thank you, WPWoodJr. Yes, I had tried before, strange, on my system there aren't.

Why are some of the files shown as unequal excluded automatically when I exclude all equal (by content) files? So, when all 10.752 files shown as equal by content ("Two way") are i…

FreeFileSync is a great program and works exactly as described. The only problem I have with it, is that when I modify a Gimp xcf file, the new dates/times do not show up in either…

Since after one week nobody seems to have an answer to my question, I suppose this feature doesn't exist. After some failed attempts with getting the dates from my big log files, I…

Great, well done, many thanks, Zenju, And thanks for the new beta version, I will try it.

Thank you. I'd never guessed that. Are there more secret setttings?

[Quote] Unless I misunderstand what you mean, that's exactly what I have done. I have a single batch that contains all of my folder pairs.

This feature is not yet implemented, but thanks for the feedback for OS X: [URL]

@Plerry: yes, that's no problem. FFS in general has no dependencies to "frameworks" of any kind which could be in an inconsistent state and would need a uninstall/reinstall routine…

The simplest solution is to use an environment macro instead of a fixed folder name. When the folders need to change, update the macro and restart from a script. Environment macros…

Your trying to do a move FFS is intended to "sync" as the name implies. I would just write a script using Robocopy and ForFiles from Microsoft.

Why not simply exclude that particular folder (and all its contents) from the sync in your sync definition?

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

So easy. I actually activated it for some other files. I feel dumb. Thanks a lot for your quick reply.

So FFS does not cause such a window to pop up. Thank you.
