I am using FreeFileSync on WIndows 10 to synchronize files via SFTP with my Linux box.

The problem is that when files are synchronized from Windows to Linux, chmod permissions are being reset. So, for example, a file has chmod 755, when I edit it in Windows and synchronize it back to Linux, its permissions get reset to 644. This is extremely annoying and makes the application unusable.

How can this be prevented?
