Hi,

I am using the latest version of freefilesync on a windows 11 machine. I can´t run a sync anymore ( it worked once), because my ftp connection doesn´t work with freefilesync with the error: Unexpected FTP Response: failed to parse month name.

At WinSCP or any other program the ftp connection works. What can I do to resolve this issue?

Can you provide me with a test login to this server? This seems to be a yet unknown directory format for FreeFileSync.

Yes, how can I securely share the login credentials?

Fixed! FreeFileSync does now support this (somewhat strange!) directory format: https://www.mediafire.com/file/gdz8xve07vio7cm/FreeFileSync_12.3_%255BBeta%255D_Windows_Setup.exe
