Accidentally original files overwritten: restoring possible?

[dirki-boy]

I accidentally have overwritten original files (settings in FFS: "update" and comparing by "content") with dummy files (same name without content). I found in the recycle bin 1278 files (141 GB) with suffixes like "FFS 2013-01-06 114904" of the 2379 overwritten files. Why are the other files, the rest of the 2379 files not shown there? Where could I find them?

And why is it possible at all that the overwritten files are in the recycle bin? Did FFS moved them to it? I would think overwritten files would not be moved to the recycle bin. Is there an option?

FFS treats overwritten files the same as deleted files. So checkout what setting you used for "deletion handling" in synchronization settings.

Many thanks, Zenju.

<<<"deletion handling" in synchronization settings
"Recycle Bin" is activated there.

<<<FFS treats overwritten files the same as deleted files.
OK, that means FFS has moved these files to the recycle bin. And whether it should do so I can set here: deletion handling" in synchronization settings.

Thanks again.
