FreeFileSync Forum

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…

Got it (from the Mint forum) - I am using Mint 14, Cinnamon, the path might be different under different Linux setups the Network folder (a GoFlex NAS drive) also has a path here; …

I do a comparison (Two way) by content. Then I undisplay all items by pressing all of the buttons at the bottom, then I press the "Equal" button, all items are included, 9423 items…

I have compared local files with files on the server by content. FFS shows them as unequal. I have then downloaded some of those files and checked / compared again with FFS, now it…

Oh ... I see that a lot of points have to be taken into consideration when talking about the time of a file. But, thanks to you, Zenju, I am able to understand a little bit better …

The countdown shown on the left side in the address bar where the folder path is shown at the top. Usually shown only - as far as I know - when another sync / compare is active usi…

I download 20 podcasts a day and use FFS to sync them to my phone but I then have to go delete them from the pc since I cant figure out how to auto delete the source folders. Thank…

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…

Thanks, Im an idiot, found that first day I was trailing and ignored it...also found I can drga multiple *.ffs jobs over and let it build that way. Paul

Or Scheduled Tasks?

Hello :-) I hope that I am writing in the correct forum now, since I am a beginner. If not - feel free to move this thread to another subforum :-) My question is about the two meth…

Running a script with admin privileges and the following files will not copy: ntuser.dat, ntuser.dat.LOG1 and .LOG2, UsrClass.dat, UsrClass.dat.LOG1 and .LOG2 errors say locked by …

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?

[Quote] No.

So for the time being I thought I would suppress the recycle bin warning so my log monitoring program doesn't get triggered. I set WarnRecycleBinNotAvailable to false in GlobalSett…

Thank you, srjones67. <<<Dirk, I would look at the help in FFS it is very helpful and I would create test folders to see how each of the functions work so not to destroy your live …

That would be great. Many thanks again, glad not to have lost files.

Looks like [404, Invalid URL: http://sourceforge.net/p/freefilesync/support-requests/61/]

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.

Where is the extended search? I want to search for my user name to show my own posts.

How can I get notification e-mails on this forum? I couldn't find a way to enable it. There is no notification in the spam folders.

How can I show my own posts on this forum? Is there a way to do it like it works on other forums normally? "Subscriptions", "Watching", "Tracker" etc. seems to mean something else.

Currently the best thing is to "retry" either manually or via script that restarts the sync. One more reason for: [404, Invalid URL: https://sourceforge.net/p/freefilesync/feature-…

OK, thank you WPWoodJr.

Why does the date get changed when doing a Compare?

I didn't see anything about it in the Help file.

Thank you for your reply. I was wondering about this behaviour because it happended on a 1-TB-HD with 600 GB free space and a recycler size of 48 GB. But I did many operations, may…

Can I make FFS always only to copy the existing files (sync mode e.g. "Update") on the left side to the right side? Without ever overwriting, deleting, changing files on the right …

[Quote] Thanks Zenju, the file association for .ffs_batch is not in place; should I associate it with the main program?

In Windows you can use forfiles to delete files older than x days. For example, I use: [Code] to list and then delete files more than 7 days old. There are more details at [URL]
