Deleted and renamed files keep reappearing

Posts: 3 · friedrick 2 Dec 2009, 10:06

Hi all,

I have a problem in syncing two folders (batch mode with Windows scheduled
task)

Deleted files keep reappearing, re-created from the other side.
Same with renamed files, both with old and new names are finally on both
sides.

I suppose this is not the expected behaviour, how to fix this ?

Thx,
Fred.

You need to use "automatic" as sync-variant, if you want to propagate
deletions. I assume you're using "two-way" at the moment.

..or use "mirror" if you have a "master" directory that simply shall overwrite
the other...

First, thanks for your prompt reply.
I am indeed using "two-way", and there is no 'master' directory.

But I don't see the 'automatic' option, only mirror, update, two-way or
custom.

I am using v2.3 if it may help.

Then I'd suggest you update to v3.1 :)

OK, it did the trick, thanks!
