Freefilesync Bug on Windows 2012 Server - wrong timestamp

[amannr]

I have two Windows 2012 Server.
FFS have to sync datadirectories on both.
FFS set the wrong time stamp (actual date time) to the copied files.
->Every sync copies all the data!
It's a bug.
Do you have a fix?
It's very important.
Thanks

Do you have a Process Monitor log? It's unlikely this is a FFS bug.

Sorry! It's not a FFS bug.
I use netdrive to map a ftp-drive on W2012Srv.
The Problem is described in ffs-help:
"Most FTP drives set a file's time stamp to the current time when synchronizing ignoring the source file's time and date. As a workaround you can do a Compare by File Size."

Please tell me, how can i mirror / sync only with "compare by filesize",
without compare the filetime?!

That's also explained in the help file chapter "Expert Settings".

Now i have FFS configured to "compare by filesize".
But the result is wrong again!
After mirroring many files have different filesizes!? Look the attachment.
Source and target are NTFS.
A filecopy with Explorer from source to target shows the same filesize?
Can you help me?

You have to set a sync direction for type "conflict".

How can I do that? I cant find this in the Helpfile?
Is this really the solution for different file sizes?
Where did the different file sizes come from?
Isnt it a filecopy-problem?
