Re: Backup from SSD
Sorry, I just re-read this ticket and see it's about delays when copying stuff (somehow I got it in my head that it was grinding to almost a halt during scanning). Could be something in your AppData is...

Do you mean it is deleting without prompting, or that it doesn't prompt (thus, doesn't do anything in respect of that file)? If you mean the latter, that's normal if you run the profile Unattended.For...
View ArticleRe: Smart Sync not asking for confirmation on deletion
Thanks for quick reply.. Basically I set up a SYNC to run periodically or whenever there are changes on left or right, BUT what I want to happen is confirmation on deletion of a file. I'm not sure it's...
View ArticleRe: Smart Sync not asking for confirmation on deletion
Set it to prompt you, and then run it in such a way that prompts are not disabled overall? If the profile deleted files without prompting you, this is because it was set to delete without prompting. If...

Re: "start with windows" runs but then exits
Hi Dave, once again very quick response thanks!The effect is the same for cold start, warm (re)start or just windows logon. Task scheduler reports all tasks have ran succesfully, no remaining instance...

Re: "start with windows" runs but then exits
I didn't mean disable the profiles (completely), I meant to disable their Run On Logon status. This is why their Tasks didn't disappear from the Scheduler, and which is why their exit codes are...
View ArticleRe: "start with windows" runs but then exits
hmm, the 0 (or whatever code a program exits with) is only returned to the caller (task sched) when the process exits. As all 4 instances have distinct process-ID's I find it hard to imagine the task...

Re: "start with windows" runs but then exits
Ok, so I removed the OnLogin triggers from the profiles, put them in a group and added the OnLogin trigger to this group. Task scheduler then shows 2 tasks, the 'start with windows' task and the group...

addition to the previous post:When I modify the task in task scheduler to 'Run a new instance' the effect remains the same - only the 'On Login' task shows up in the taskbar, the 'start with windows'...

Re: "start with windows" runs but then exits
Classically, the first time I tried it, (after adding a 15s delay to the profile Task), the program Task (with default 5s delay) still self-cancelled! But the 2nd time I tried (and the 3rd), it worked...

Re: "start with windows" runs but then exits
I do recognize the random delay MS seems to add to startup tasks; timing after startup is not very strict. But adding a delay of 30s to the onLogon tasks effectively works around the problem I...

We can't tell you why the file dates changed except that a Move wouldn't do so (or shouldn't - depends what you Moved them with). But moving files to a new location may have triggered other indexing...
