Hi,

Ver: 7.0

I just found serious bug that the same files with same greater time and size in same folders is being marked wrong movement changes.

Ex: I have File1.txt in Left folder date is most recent and Right side file is 2 months old and both in same size, but it suppoed to move/sync from Left->Right, but marking Right<-Left.

What is going on?

Also, the sync between Mac and Windows using common USB is bringing lot of bugs and issues.

you need to provide more details.

are you perhaps using a USB drive as an intermediary between systems? that might explain things

When using "two-way" variant, FreeFileSync will propagate all changes, so if you overwrite a newer file on one side with an older version and then start synchronization, FFS will propagate this change, irrespective of which file is newer.
