Hi all,
First timer here, so forgive me if this has already been mentioned.
I have a VIDEO folder that I wish to sync with an external hard drive. I want to sync with an absolute path, i.e. C:\user\ggran\video\*.*
Unfortunately, after the sync I noticed that the movies are listed alone from the root of my destination, no folder defined. I have changed the parameters to full path on the both sides but does not reflect the absolute path.
Appreciate any help, thank you!

In the main Dialog, you define the left- and right- base location (see here, nr. 7).
Apparently, you have defined your left base location as C:\user\ggran\video\ ,
but your right base location as the root of your external drive (let's assume D:\ ).
Create a folder D:\video\ and define your right base location as D:\video\ .
Now FreeFileSync will sync all files to D:\video, retaining the (sub)folder structure existing in C:\user\ggran\video\
