I downloaded FreeFileSync source code from https://freefilesync.org/download.php, and it looks like a POSIX version of the code. I can't find any Windows API calls: no code to handle DACLs, copyItemPermissions uses POSIX chown and chmod instead of SetFileSecurity.

I found source code of version 7 that includes Windows calls at https://github.com/abcdec/MinFFS/, but it's 6 years old. Where can I find the source code of current version for Windows?

Hello.

I have exactly the same question. Where is source code for windows? I'm currently in search for open-source File Sync software and FreeFileSync was on my list but i could not find the source code.
