(There might be other similar posts about this. Sorry if I should have added this there.)
I have been using FreeFileSync for quite some time, and it's a great piece of software!
I love the fact that it can detect moved/renamed files and folders in the synchronization process, which saves a lot of time.
Now it would be extremely helpful if it could show the user which files and folders are going to be moved/renamed and which ones will be deleted on the right side. Currently they are all marked the same.
If moved/renamed files were marked differently from files that are going to be deleted, this would alert the user if files/folders had accidentally been deleted on the source drive, which seems to have happened to me at least once.
Thanks for looking into this.
