Just started using FFS scenario

#1 from PC(source) to external EXT HD(target) UPDATE mode and then use on notebook. Once I connect back to PC and some files were changed or deleted.

#2 if I use TWOWAY mode how do I prevent deleted files on EXT HD from also being deleted on PC
i.e. mistakenly deleted file.

#3 thinking of just creating new project as
external EXT HD(source) UPDATE mode to PC(Target)

I'm impressed with FFS, but still learning features. THANKS

#1 and #3 do not seem to be a remark, not a question

#2: For Two-way syncs (and Mirror-syncs) the best protection against accidental deletion of files is to use Versioning.
Of files that get deleted or overwritten/updated by an FFS sync, Versioning retains as many previous copies as you select, for as long as you select, in an arbitrary accessible location you select.
