I would like to synchronize two directories. The source directory is a deposit of temporary OS files that are deleted after a certain amount of time. Yet I would like the destination directory to maintain copies of all the files that were saved to the source directory. Is there a way to setup a one-way 'update' (vs 'mirror) style sync instead of a standard two-way sync that would lose files as they expire per the OS?

Simply select the Update sync variant in the Synchronization Settings (F8)
The Update sync variant leaves files that pre-exist in the right (destination) location intact, if those files do not, or no longer exist in the left (source) location.
