Recently update from 4.6 to 5.6 and noted the following:
version 4.6: when you start RealTimeSync, it immediately check for changes
and eventually sync.
version 5.6: when you start RealTimeSync, it wait for specified delay before
of check.
This is a problem because if you set a delay of a couple of minutes, it
doesn't run on system startup
RealTimeSync first time run

The main purpose of the delay is to avoid interference with other applications
that are working on the same files. v4.6 started sync unconditionally upon
startup, only then waited the specified time when detecting changes. This
initial sync seemed in contrast to the general expectation, so v5.6 will start
as if having received a change-event, but wait according to the configuration.

Thanks for immediate reply.
This is the scenario:
machine 1 starts in the morning while others have been working during the
night.
Which is yr suggestion to have all sync files on machine 1 at startup and
maintain delay in RealTimeSync?
4.6 works great, but 5.6 is much better in terms of performance and
would like to upgrade.
Thanks in advance.

The simplest thing is probably to add a second entry in autostart, e.g. a link
to the FFS batch file which executes independently from RTS.
