Just incredible software, I've been using it for years.

The tip where files in a folder (or drive) are compared with an empty destination field, and then sort the result by date, was brilliant! It put me on the right track of solving the only problem I still had with FreeFileSync. Thanks to this video, I now know how to easily find the files with a certain date, select them and synchronize them with my Google Drive Upload folder, on my laptop, so they are easily accessible for everybody, no matter their location, after a few minutes. Perfect, and thank you!

Amazing software and even more amazing you offer this for free. I used to use SyncToy but this has more options and can mirror files that are in use using Shadow Copy. Thank you so much! (Yes I did buy the donation edition)!

How will to sync ftp server from local machine folder

[@DayzGone]

I'm trying to sync between my two laptops but I can't. It seems like the program wants to sync with itself. I cannot select the other machine location

3:12 the "biggest files" are copied 6 times on the system, but titled "not-so-interesting" ... seems legit...
