RTS- can't change default 10 sec wait

[Lunix]

I have tried to make the wait time MUCH longer, because when I open certain software, RTS pops up a modal progress dialog in front of the application window. I tried making it delay by times ranging from 75 seconds to 180 seconds, but it always reverts back to 10 seconds, even though I save the job file it's using.

What to do?

You're passing a .ffs_batch file instead of a .ffs_real file. Former is no the native RTS config format but just a short-cut to quickly set up default RTS parameters.

Many thanks! I will try changing it.

I can't make it get a valid configuration. Here's the message I get:
---------------------------
FreeFileSync - Error
---------------------------
File "C:\Users\xxx\Documents\FFS_ALL_BatchRun.ffs_real" does not contain a valid configuration.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
SO, after getting this error- I opened the job in FFS, then saved it as "FFS_ALL_BatchRun.ffs_batch". Then I opened it in RTS. Then I saved it as "FFS_ALL_BatchRun.ffs_real". But I still get the error.

Have you looked inside the file? It's probably corrupted.

It seems fine. Here it is:

"C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\FreeFileSync.exe" "C:\xyz\Documents\FFS_ALL_BatchRun.ffs_real"

You're passing a RTS configuration to FFS which expects a ffs_batch.
