Re: Backup recent file on the cloud with versioning?

1) yes, you explained it, no it's not possible/supported (with a single profile). We only ever 'replicate absence', so the files you want deleting must not be on the source.If you do a search on here...

Thanks Dave for the very fast reply. I will look for 'housekeeping' About point 2) encryption: I just use normal compression/encryption of SBP so that files in the destination (it's a folder in a...

Re: Won't Wake up to run profile

If the Windows Task Scheduler (note that there is no scheduler in any version of SB itself - we use a drill-down to the Windows Task Scheduler service) cannot wake the Toshiba PC, that's something for...

2) Encrypted Zips do not internally store the hash value of the file inside them (as per Zip standard). As you will have read in the Help, Rename/Move detection requires that file contents be compared...

Re: Backup recent file on the cloud with versioning?

Well, ok, but the purpose of adopting a smart sync profile is to use a DB, so the hash could be stored in the DB. In general, I think, many ones need a way to make a backup that understands folder/file...

Re: Won't Wake up to run profile

Re: Mirror backup: critical errors

BTW, Simulated Runs will likely work perfectly, as they only read properties and compare them and display what they would normally do if Run for real. As this does not (yet) involve trying to copy the...

Re: Not showing alternative for destination
