I use the donation edition. I've just updated to version 11:10.

In this version I now have a much plainer interface, no dialogue window to say "yes update that" - it just jumps straight in to sychronise. No summary window to let me know what folders are updating. A bit freaky when you are mirroring from one drive to another. I've now put a versioning folder in place as a result .. normally a waste of drive space for what I do.

Further it is mirroring THE ENTIRE 4TB DRIVE to the usual location that normally just has a few files to update. I don't know what else to do but to let it run. Have there been preference defaults that have changed?

If I knew there would be so many changes to this version I might have stuck with the last. I don't like how it runs straight away without letting me know what I've chosen to update. I'm going to be looking around at other sync programs now as it isn't providing me what I originally supported it for.

My FFS 11.10 version (Windows) does (at the surface) not look or behave different from previous FFS versions.

That is typically the behavior when you open a *.ffs_batch file from the command prompt.
Do you just open FFS (the GUI) and then select a FFS sync configuration, or do you use the command prompt?

Adding to Plerry, it didn't change for me either. You may be best resetting dialog box prompts or even uninstalling/reinstalling
