Log file setting wish ;-)

[ASuess]

Hello,
I am a new user and amazed about the easy setting and fast synchronization.
We support some private users that needs an easy solution.
Used MS SyncToy before finding now that there are hard issues in copying (echo) user data files as I was able to set a config where the backup was done "successful" without having data in the destination :-(

So we have a program that is able to find the age of a file in a specific folder ->
C:\Install\FreeFileSync-Log\

I wish to get ONE specific log file (optimal would be:
.ok if batch ran without issues and
.error if some errors occured

so that I can see WHEN the last successful backup was done by the user while retrieving its change date!

Hope to get positive reply ;-)

Greetings

Alexander

Why not simply parse the log file names? They already include time stamps, are highly regular, and come in the form:

<config name> YYYY-MM-DD HHMMSS.ms.html


And if problems occurred:

<config name> YYYY-MM-DD HHMMSS.ms [Warning].html
<config name> YYYY-MM-DD HHMMSS.ms [Error].html
<config name> YYYY-MM-DD HHMMSS.ms [Stopped].html

Thanks for reply,
while: I am a friend of clean directories - and in the actual way EVERY backup creates at least one file.
And while the process is capable of finding files older than x days - which affects the actual way as not applicable while there are too many (old) files.
A setting "single log file" would help to solve this.
