I'm new to this program but am impressed with its features.
I can't believe a sync program doesn't support sync by date, time & size, but I can't work out how to select both of these options, tried shift and control and alt click and other things also. If not possible where would I raise the request?
I downloaded this program because MTP was mentioned and that means it may be able to reliably sync with my Windows 10 computer. I haven't proven this yet but I know that Explorer on every version of Windows I have ever tried (Windows XP, 7 & 10) fails to work correctly (or even "see" all files) on every Android devices and OS I have tried. I'm hoping the program has its own MTP code imbedded.
If it works I'll look into automating the sync if that is possible.
Thanks for any answers or tips.
Am I missing Something, want to sync by date/time AND size

Which sync program are you using? As far as FreeFileSync is concerned sync by "file time and size" is the default setting.

The version is the latest at the time "8.1 Build Apr 21 - Unicode x64", I just downloaded 8.2 and not sure if this is different, but either way I'm confused.
In the left(ish) (compare) you can filter by:
* File time and size
* File content
* File size
In the middle (filter/funnel) you can filter by:
* File time and size
* File content
* File size
This has changed in 8.2 I think. I think the above 2 options seem the same, why are there 2 locations for it and why is "file time:" not a separate option.
I'm guessing I need to have a good read of the documentation, the UI could help by proviing more information and links to appropriate help pages.
