Hello,
The pointer to the log of a command line batch process is not systematically updated in the main menu of ffs. This is indeed generated in the logs directory by the batch but when you display the main menu of ffs, the green tick points to an old log of the command.
On the other hand, if I execute the command directly from the main menu of ffs, the log pointed to by the green tick is that of the execution and it is OK.
Best regards
PB display log in batch mode

It is working fine for me. FFS 11.29, Windows 11
FFS must be closed when the sync is ran though, otherwise it will not update

Thank you for your reply.
Although FFS is closed, the update of the "Last synchro" field is not systematic next to the "Name". The time is not updated and remains positioned on a previous execution.
On the other hand, the .log files of all executions are indeed generated in the logs directory.
Environment: PC x64 windows 10 latest release, FFS 11.29
Command executed in CMD batch, RealTimeSynch with a xxx.ffs_real, synchronization in both directions

RTS and FFS are two entirely different programs. Invoking a RTS setup is not the same as invoking a FFS setup

I can confirm that behavior. A sync triggered by RTS does not update the shortcut in FFS to the latest log of that config.

Perfect. Thank you for your answers. I understand the difference between FFS and RTS.
But I just relaunched the . bat of orders and there, every hour is updated in the menu FFS... This morning, the first batch . ffs_batch did not update the date in FFS. It is a . ffs_batch executed in Windows command by FreeFileSync.exe, in "Two Way" mode and which executes "At the end" another command ffs.batch...
There must be a contextual or random element that prevents FFS update.

This should work in general, except for this yet unsolved issue:I can confirm that behavior. A sync triggered by RTS does not update the shortcut in FFS to the latest log of that config. xCSxXenon, 15 Jan 2023, 21:51

Thank you for your reply. Indeed, I am in the same case as the viewtopic.php?t=9278.
Some simultaneously monitored directories are stored on a NAS (Synology) and two different computers under Windows 10... Complicated to manage programmatically... ;-))
PS.: The FFS and RTS solution is super powerful and easy to implement!!! Well done and thank you!

And it worked fine today... RTS triggered a sync and the shortcut updated accordinglyThis should work in general, except for this yet unsolved issue:I can confirm that behavior.

Yes I agree with you but the update is random because for the same execution, once it is updated, another time not...
In fact, what interests me is the value of the stiker of the log: green = OK, otherwise, you have to look at what happened.

Hello
I noticed each time that on the computer which is powerful (Bi-pro xeon, 16 GB RAM, windows 10 pro x64), all the RTS and FFS synchronization times are updated when you open the application FFS.
The other computers are older and the CPU is at 100% when the batches are triggered.
I think the problem is related to the lack of resources (CPU, disk and network access, RAM) of my other computers which are much less efficient...
It's just a clue... ;-))

Not probable since I have had it work and not work on the same computersHello

However, the update of hours in FFS is systematically 100% OK on my Dell computer (Dell T7400, Bi-xeon, SSD, etc...) while on my two SONY VGN laptops, the hours are very randomly entered ...
On the other hand, the startup .bat which executes, among other things, the RTS and FFS commands lasts a total of 15 seconds on the Dell and more than 2 minutes on the SONY... hence the suspicion of a resource problem for FFS and RTS programs while they are running.
