I don't want to use RealTimeSync, but it is installed and a desktop shortcut is created.

I don't find any Option to remove it or to uninstall it, I don't remember if it had asked me at the time of installation whether RealTimeSync should be installed.

How do I remove RealTimeSync and keep only rest of FreeFileSync.

Thanks.

Delete the shortcut.
Ignore the rest.
Unless you actually set up to use a RealTimeSync, it does nothing.

Hi.

During the install you had an option to install realtime and ffs "shortcuts."
I said OK but later found i don't use them and wanted to delete.
That seemed to work but now there is a new folder in the HOME window titled DESKTOP that can't be deleted or moved to trash.

Can you please help me banish this folder?

Desktop is a default folder in a user's "home" directory for probably every single OS out there. Deleting it is likely to cause issues
