Hello all,

first of all I wanted to say that I am a complete beginner with FreeFileSync. My goal is to copy files from my external hard drive to an FTP server.

As I have already read in other forums, it is only possible to monitor the local files. For my purposes it is not necessary to monitor the files on the server.

In another post I read the following note: "You should let RTS then only monitor your local folder, and not your SFTP location.". My question is how do I set this up correctly?

I have set up a configuration in FreeFileSync and saved it as a batch job (screenshot attached). But when I run this job with RTS I get the following error message: "FTP protocol does not support directory monitoring", although I thought I have set FFS correctly. Or where do I have to set the directory monitoring for RTS?

Sorry for stupid questions and thanks for this handy program. ^^

In the RTS setup window, there is a section to specify monitored directories. Remove the remote location
