Version 11.26 does not recognise ffs_batch file

[JSouthon]

Have been using FFS for ages, with a ffs_batch file to autosync my main data files to a backup disc.

I've just updated FFS to version 11.26 and when I run the command "C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\RealTimeSync.exe" "D:\Config\FreeFileSync\D-to-F.ffs_batch" I get a "RealTimeSync - Error" popup. The message says:

File "D:\Config\FreeFileSync\D-to-F.ffs_batch" does not contain a valid configuration
Unexpected file extension: "ffs_batch"

I've uninstalled version 11.26 and reinstalled version 11.25 and everything is fine

It shouldn't work in 11.25...
You are opening a ffs_batch file, which is used in FFS, in RTS, which uses ffs_real files

It was working in 11.25. Somehow.
Anyway, a quick read about ffs_real and I have updated my files and all is working well with 11.26.
Thanks

"ffs_batch" should also work for convenience. The result is the same as if you'd drag and drop an .ffs_batch file onto RealTimeSync. Fixed in FFS 11.27.
