Hi,
(FreeFileSync v13.7)
I'm not sure whether this is just the way that NTFS/Windows file-handling works or not...
I rename a directory containing A LOT of data (>150GB), when I then synchronise it to my external drive, rather than simply renaming the relevant directory, it deletes said directory (and contents) then copies everything across again into the newly created, 'renamed' directory.
All I wanted it to do is rename the directory!
Cheers,
Mike.

Did you checkmark "Use database file to detect changes" in your Synchronization Settings?
