Sync over ftp or sftp
It's disappointing that this problem isn't dealt with because the files that Create Synchronicity refuses to copy are easily copied to their destination using Windows Explorer. That means I have to find a new backup tool that does things correctly.

Thank you very much for the program!
Bonjour Clément, Thanks for your reply, and sorry for the delay. These are my current exceptions: /.*lrdata;".Spotlight-V100";".Trashes";".TemporaryItems";".fseventsd";".Spotlight-V100" I tried just: .Spotlight-V100 And ".Spotlight-V100" And still got this: [Uma imagem com captura de ecrã, monitor, computador, ecrã Descrição gerada automaticamente] Actually, I think I can't make an exception of anything that begins with a period character "." I tried a bunch of other ways as well, to no avail. I...
The second one looks surprising. For the first one, does it help if you include a slash before the pattern? For the specific string part, I'd use a regular expression too. See http://synchronicity.sourceforge.net/help.html#file-regex , though the explanation is more geared towards file exclusion.
How to exclude directories with specific characters?
Exclude These Files does not work
I don't this you need the extra * after the \$. Accepting the simpler format would be an improvement, but unfortunately I don't have time to work on it at the moment.
Yes, it worked. But the string was as follow /^~\$*.*/ !!! This format is not intuitive to the people that do not work with programming, so I suggest to accept the easier format ~$*.* for the general user.
Please try /^~\$.*/
I have tried the following strings: ~$*.* and /^~\$*..*/ because the file have the filename as ~$xxxxxxxxetcxxx.yyy. Both have not worked.
I have tried the following strings: ~$. and /^~\$../ because the file have the filename as ~$xxxxxxxxetcxxx.yyy. Both have not worked.
What exclusion pattern are you using? Can you try ~$.* and /^~\$\..*/?

My hope is that experts will read the manual; this is the way to learn about these options.

Thanks. Installing a manual with the app could be useful, but I think there's a link to the manual in the about page, correct? Most of these setting are supposed to be expert only, and I'd like experts to have read the manual, so not adding a visible option is on purpose. Same for the hidden options.

Further things missing: - there is no offline manual installed together with the app, not even a link to the manual on the website (I would prefer offline one) - a menu with available global Settings - the Expert mode should be added to the menu, so user could enable it by mouse click - make all global (mainconfig.ini) and contextual (*.sync) options available from the GUI

Great! Could be possible to have this option in the GUI?
Have you checked the following section of the manual? Updating folder attributes In version 6.0+, Create Synchronicity never updates a directory's "last modified" date (although it does set it upon creation). You can force automatic propagation of directories "last modified" dates by adding Sync folder attributes:True to the corresponding profilename.sync file. This setting isn't enabled by default mostly because some network drives do not apply directory attributes correctly: on these drives, enabling...
Timestamp of synced directory is not the same as original
I had this problem before and I now use Long Path Tool and it is so easy to use and very helpful
Running as Administrator and redefining the destination directory fixed the problem. No idea why it was necessary to redefine the destination directory, but at least it worked.
Syncronization errors: mscorlib & Invalid config
Thanks. Can you show the full command line that you are using? As-is, I think this is the expected behavior: /quiet is only useful if combined with /run.
/quiet not working in Windows 10
It also ran today (1st February), which is when it was expected to do so.

It certainly looks like the answers that I am looking for. And I gave the 'Text logs' setting a try, but the resultant file was still an HTML file. Following is one of the .sync files I am using; Strict mirror:False Discard after:0 Source Directory:F: Destination Directory:G: Included Filetypes: Excluded FileTypes: Replicate Empty Directories:True Create destination folder:False Strict date comparison:True Propagate Updates:True Time Offset:0 Checksum:False Check file size:False Group: Last modified:24/01/2018...
There's two helpful settings for this problem: Text-only logs (v5.2+) Should you prefer your logs to be saved as text instead of html, append Text logs:True; to your main configuration file. Specifying how many log entries should be archived (v5.2+) The default in Create Synchronicity is to keep 7 entries in the log files. You can customize this behaviour by appending Archived log entries:n; in your main configuration file. Do these help?
Log file separation by date due to size
I was wondering about an option to ignore 'System Files & Folders' and it has already been raised. Although I am interesting in preventing attempts to delete 'System Volume Information'. Right now I am using the profile "hack" to specify target folders to match source folders, but this procedure seems less elegant than I would have preferred.
Can you share a copy of your config file? I'm not sure what might cause this, though. Is it reproducible? (as in, is it always the same stick that causes issues?)

That's the path to the source, but how long is that path to the destination? IOW, the problem is with the file that you listed, but the error comes from trying to create the file on the other side.
incorrect "specified path, file name, or both are too long." error.
I second this. Also, the current compression method compresses each file individually....
