I hope this is the most suitable forum for this...

Hi all!

My question is about FreeSyncFile.
First off, I'll admit that it does have a very friendly UI. However this is the very reason why I'm puzzled with the results I've gotten so far.
Before I did a real syncronization with my actual files, I thought of doing a quick test with just 3 files that I had duplicated from my actual files, just in case something were to be deleted accidentally.

So, I proceded to choose the source folder (with my 3 duplicated files). Then the destination folder (empty), on my external drive.
And finally, clicked on "Synchronize". To my disappointment, nothing was copied over from source to destination.
Instead it popped up a window with some alert errors. Mostly having to do with user priviledge rights. So for this reason I decided to try again but opening FSF "with Admin priviledges".
On my second attempt was probably worst because my source side was not able to show any files any longer, eventhough I had saved a file for this, which I opened on this second try.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance guys :)

Never had any problems with this app.

I copied 2TB of files from one drive to another without a hitch not too long ago.....
