Hi, I just found FreeFileSync as the perfect tool for my job. However i am syncronizing a NAS storage directory with a permanently PC mounted USB hard drive on my PC using the batch mode on Ubuntu 14.04. On exit from FreeFileSync the PC is forced into standby mode and have to be restarted manually. The log shows, that the syncronization worked perfectly, not showing any clue to the problem.
I hope somebody can help me with this. thanks Torbenchr

Oh boy, How can anybody make this (force standby mode) a default selection for batch run termination? Cause that's what it is !! After intensive debugging I isolated the problem to be in the XML-file parameter for 'OnCompletion'. Deleted it and now it continues the bash script as expected.

Standby is not the default for the "on completion" command. Maybe you (accidentally) set this up in the batch file creation dialog in FreeFileSync.
