Hello,

is there a way to instruct ffs to delete old files to update before backup? Is there a function in the software or do you need to run a separate script?

Thank you

I'm assuming you are running out of space on the disk? Try disabling "fail-safe file copy" in the FFS settings. The dev said FFS will only delete the file after successfully copying the new one to avoid complete data loss, but I am unsure if the former settings changes that.
