Hi all,

I need to sync for example file "NOTE.txt" which is inside of a subfolder on level 3 (for example MONTH/DAY/PROJECT/NOTE.txt) is there a way to do it with free file sync?

Assuming you want to sync "D:\NOTE.txt" with "E:\MONTH\DAY\PROJECT\NOTE.txt", simply define your left base location as "D:\" and your right base location as "E:\MONTH\DAY\PROJECT\" (or vice versa), omitting the quotes.
This will sync all content of "D:\" with the content of "E:\MONTH\DAY\PROJECT\", retaining the folder structure (if any) existing inside these base locations.

And if you do not want to sync all file types that are present in your base folder location or (sub)folders thereof, you can use the Exclude Filter to exclude certain file types, or the Include Filter for including certain file-types; whatever is most suitable for your use-case.
