Hello,
I have to completely exit and restart FreeFileSync at least 2 times before all
drives are synced. Can this be fixed?
When I work at home, I use FreeFileSync to keep a folder and its contents
synced (backed up) to 3 hard drives in case of failure. Then, I copy what I
need to my 2 thumb drives and take the thumb drives to work. When I'm at work,
I update or add files and then come home to sync them back with my 3 hard
drives at home.
To do this successfully, I have to completely exit FreeFileSync and then run
it again at least 2 to 3 times before all of the files are in sync.
Is there anyway to fix this please?
Thanks!
Joe

There is no need to exit FreeFileSync, just press the "compare" button again
to prepare a new sync. Better yet use FFS's multiple folder pair feature or
use multiple sync configurations.

Thanks! I am new to FreeFileSync from a long time user of SyncToy. I had to
abandon SynToy 2.1 because it was literally taking 20 to 30 minutes to do what
FreeSyncToy is doing in less than a minute. No joke.
I'll be sending in a donation. Thanks!

Thank You! I can't afford much right now, but hopefully I can come back and
give more again in the not-too-distant future.
