Re: Does SyncBackFree also copy files which are NOT modified

By 'differential/incremental', we mean as per this article, where each daily (or whatever) backup goes to a different location - usually in a repeating cycle, but each location is (or should be) always different to the preceding one. (Actually, the link you provided also mentions 'separate locations', if you read it again). That is not supported in the freeware, only in SE/Pro (leveraging the Fast Backup functionality).

But the sort of backup you mean ('new/changed files only', always to the same Destination) is supported (so much so that it is the default, and you can't override it).

Versioning is not supported in the Free version (it is in Pro / SE / not Free) - as stated in the comparison page

File versioning so you can roll-back changes or deletions: Y / Y / N

For the log questions, suggest check out Preferences > Log Settings

You cannot Scheduleanything to run on shutdown (no version of Windows Task Scheduler supports that per se). You can leverage a Windows logoff script if you know how (free free to Google that) to call an instance of Free to run then.

The commercial versions (SE/Pro) have the ability (if an SE/Pro instance is open, to enable the required monitoring) to detect the shut-down call from Windows, postpone it, and run a profile (then let the shut-down continue, Windows permitting). But the Free version doesn't support that.
