various synchonize (potential) bugs
Posted: 13.08.2016, 02:30
now that FreeFileSync became donationware, we need FC to get fixed.
1. Sync fail: Operation is not supported for the chosen folder message
this bug is pretty old (still very annoying) and persists in latest beta 726.
-> this message pops up sporadically, so if you cannot reproduce the issue, try harder before posting!
use unc paths or other special windows folders to reproduce. other users are running in the same issue see e.g. here.
btw, restarting FC might fix the problem (temporary) at least in my case it does (sometimes).
2. Checkboxes are greyed out pressing OK does nothing.
why is that? whatever I tried I was not able to update (ovewrite or autorename the file on the right with the left one) how is this supposed to work? obviously the files are the same, but FC thinks "files which exist on both sides: 0
3. same file gets recognised as different after changing word wrap
this also happens when changing the encoding to sth else and back.
