Hello all,

When synchronyzing, I have a dialog which tells me this :
"To avoid conflicts, set up exclude filters so that each updated file is included by only one folder pair."

The issue I have is : I have no idea of how to do this !
Please help me.

For instance, here are a pair of files in the warning logs :
D:\Users\Guy\Documents\Configurations 👓 Elegoo Saturn (v2)\SATURN MACHINE PARAMETERS (EN).GCODE.gdoc
D:\Users\Guy\Documents 💾 Configurations\Elegoo Saturn (v2)\SATURN MACHINE PARAMETERS (EN).GCODE.gdoc

Please could you tell me how to write the exclude filter corresponding ?
With your help of this sample, I'll will be able to make my own filters for all other files with this issue.

Thank you very much !

Best Regards,
Guy

You should post a screenshot of your locations in FFS. It looks like you are writing file from A to B, and B to C, meaning you should add a pair syncing from A to C directly, and exclude those files from the original two syncs

Hello and thanks again for your help.

In fact there was some "virtual A to B and B to C" like you said with the ".gdoc" files of Google Drive synchronized files also with FFS... So I've stopped to do this with adding a ".gdoc" exclude filter.
