Recently I detected a problem with my backup synchronization. I have a database which is updated frequently. My present file date is February 20 2018. Now I made a mistake with the database programm and I wanted to go back to the file of February 18. To my dismay I found, that all synchronized backups contain the file of October 12 2017, the date, when then synchronization was installed. Though the file date has changed nearly every day, the file was never updated. The file size (at least the gross value in MB) has not changed during this time.
I revisited the batch file: It contains in fact the settings:
<Comparison>
<Variant>TimeAndSize</Variant>
<Symlinks>Exclude</Symlinks>
<IgnoreTimeShift/>
</Comparison>
The program version is 9.3, it is running under Windows 10 prof. 64 bit.
I could solve the problem by setting to content comparison. Then indeed the synchronization works fine, but with my big files it takes very long. How can I get the programm to really comparing the file date?
