My Folders won't copy but all the files do?

SyncBackFree is the freeware version of SyncBack. It is *not* an evaluation version of SyncBackPro/SE.

My Folders won't copy but all the files do?

Post by jackdashack »

I've used SyncBack a long time. But, having set it up way back then I've forgotten how, or it seems simple but it's not doing what I'd like, and I know it does and will. My PC crashed and now rebuilding it I want Syncback monitoring it again. But very simply.
'
All I want is for Syncback to copy a Desktop Folder with files to an External HDD as a folder with files. It copies all the files but not in the folder. Therefore if I have 8 folders I want resident on the Ext.HDD it's a bunch of files and no folder. So at one time I got this right, long ago. But it's been so long since I modified a profile I can't remember how to get this done. FOLDER ON DESKTOP>FOLDER ON EXT. HDD. That's all. Simple.

I'm not sure in the subdirectories to choose Right Left or Right/Left. etc. So many variables I don't need.

I'd appreciate any help to this, I'm sure, simple resolution to many of you! Thanks! jack ":-Dx :roll:

I think possibly I may have stumbled onto it again. I'll see.
