When I start RealTimeSync, red window, then "Start" it shrinks but then it only performs the sync once. The window appears and it says that the synchronization went well. Then there will be no more synchronizations until I close the window, open it again and press start again. Windows 10.

Thanks
Ola A.

Something must be changing in a monitored location before your idle time is reached

Thanks :-)
No nothing happens. I made some files and was sit down waiting. The first file OK and I got the lower picture window. Makes a new file and close the window. Waiting nothing happens. Again I have to open the picture window, upper and push start. Then things happen and then nothing.
I think the process hangs up.

Still the report window, the lowest picture show up after synchronized. Then nothing happens until I manually closing it with the button. Then the process start sens status.
I want it to close automatically after perhaps 15 sec.
Or have I made some things wrong?

Aha!
Upon detecting changes in the RealTimeSync (RTS) monitored folder(s), RTS invokes FreeFileSync (FFS) to run a specified *.ffs_batch sync configuration.
Your problem is almost certainly caused by how you saved that *.ffs_batch file.
As described here, you should checkmark at least "Auto close" when saving your *.ffs_batch sync configuration.

If you don't, FFS stays open after finishing the sync. And RTS is suspended as long as the invoked FFS sync has not closed.
