I've been using FFS for about 3 months and it has worked fine everytime, until
now.

I initiated a mirror sync but nothing was processed.
The process appeared to start, but ended immediately with the log message
saying 28 items remaining, 0 items processed.
I tried several times but got the same result.
Suggestions?

Just checked the log:

Fatal Error: User-defined directory for deletion was not specified!
Warning: Synchronization completed with errors!

Update for next version: I changed this behavior to always show the log
instead of the graph, in case fatal errors occured. This will make it
immediately clear what went wrong.

Thanks for prompt replay.

Any suggestion for how to get the sync to work?

Do I need to "specify" something?

The next version changes the error text to "Directory for file versioning was
not supplied!" Still not clear?

Yes. Perfectly clear.

I had mistakenly selected 'versioning' instead of 'deletion.'

I did not notice that until your last reply.

I just changed the setting from versioning to deletion and re-started and it
is working fine.

thanks again for prompt help.

the program is wonderful.

Good evening, I am using FFS by two years, on a PC with Windows OS windows 7 pro, and I've never had any problems.
Since yesterday I realized that no longer synchronize folders that usually synchronize. I tried to download the latest version 7.6 but 'nothing has changed.
Why?
