Hello,
I've searched in vain. I'd like to mirror the source folder every month to a target folder with a timestamp in order to keep rotating versions of my source folder. The versioning page is not what I need: https://freefilesync.org/manual.php?topic=versioning
example:
Source folder: "MyFolder"
Target folder: "2025-05-10 MyFolder"
Target folder next month: "2025-06-10 MyFolder"
Thanks!

You can simply manually edit or type the target (right-side) base folder's name.
Or you can use a Macro (e.g. %Date%) in your right-side base folders name.

Thank you, the macro is what I need then.
If anyone is looking for the answer, in the target field there is no need to use versioniong. Add %TimeStamp% to the folder's name:
%TimeStamp% MyFolder
That's it!
