Good morning to all,
recently Google changed the way shared folder are used. And now i'm not able to copy a shared folder from GDrive to my Nas.
Is there a way to do it?
In order to be clear:
• i'm using Windows 11 (latest update available at moment);
• i have a folder inside my GDrive space called "University.lnk"
•generally on freefilesync:
•• i select the source folder (my gdrive root folder with the shared folder also inside) on the left
•• i select the destination folder (my nas folder) on the right
•••i click compare and after few moments of calculations in the list i can see the program copies only the .lnk file but not all the contents.
••So when i start copying by clicking on "Mirror" mode, the program copies everything but not the files that are stored in "University.lnk" (the google shared folder).
I hope you are able to understand what i've written and sorry for some typo or other mistakes but i'm not english native.
Forgive i've should post it into the Help section.

It seems you did not set your symbolic link handling to Follow.

Yes, It was set to "Follow" but for some reason it didn't work. I've tried few days later and it has synched as expected.
Thank you for answering.
