I use ffs with the option:
"Versioning deleted files"
with the date-var: "...MyArchivPath\%DATE%"
with naming convention "replace".
For every day i have an new archive-folder. Thats fine.
But, to find the right files for restore is very annoying,
because the files are not stored with their full path.
In addition, files with the same filename (in the orginal place in different folders)
will be overidden in the archivfolder from the the newer one.
So its not posible to restore every file, what i have backuped.
Thats not a good idea for a good backup.
Finding files in the archiv is very chaotic.
Please, store the files in the archiv with their full path, and all would be good,
at least make a dir for every folderpair.
Can you change this ???

I would suggest to try using the "Time stamp [Folder]" Versioning method
instead of "Replace". This should retain the folder structure for versioning.
You can then use the "Limit file versions" to limit the number of versions to 1,
effectively making it into the Replace method.

No this don't retain the folder structure.
