Re: external HD is not recognized in profile

Blame Windows for changing the drive letters. You have configured a profile to point at a letter that now isn't there (or worse, is now pointing to a different device, that might be highly...

Re: Job aborted because "Too many files would be deleted"

Nothing you can drill into now, but you can run the profile again as a Simulated Run, and if the same circumstances arise that arose last time, the Differences window will show you which simulated...

Re: Windows Directory case not preserved

I'll have to do some more research into the nature of this problem. There are no duplicate directories, but I suspect something created an Htdocs directory. I renamed it manually to HTDocs, muddying...

Re: Start on insert - aborting for bitlocker usb drive

After re-thinking your issue, you might still get the 'already running' error even if you set the delay timing to start a profile. The reason is because SyncBackPro would actually get two insertion...

Re: Start on insert - aborting for bitlocker usb drive

Actually, I can't replicate this when testing here (7.0.23.0, Win 8.0), whether auto-unlocking or not. Pro does nothing till the unlock is performed (either via p/w or auto) which suggests (for me, at...
