This is possibly a variant on the message of "Post by zorvek • 15 May 2017, 08:46 " I'm a long time user of linux rsync and am trying to use FFS 9.1 on Win7. I have a clean ext drive. I expected I would choose "mirror" as the operation. So, I selected the subdirectory on C:\Users\foo\bar" as source and E:\ as target. I expected to see created on E:\Users\foo\bar\files...
Instead I get: E:\files. Ie, the subdirectory structure was not carried over to the target drive. Surely FFS does not expect me to manually create all the subdirs needed for each file??? What am I missing? (rsync does this easily.)
mirror does not preserve subdirectory structure

The folders preserved are only those starting from the folder you indicate as your source.
So to achieve what you desire, if your source is C:\Users\foo\bar the destination must be E:\Users\foo\bar
