Not backing up certain folders

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

Not backing up certain folders

Post by lizzy »

SyncBackFree is not backing up some of the folders on my pc.

It's not consistent - for example, one recently created folder and its contents backed up and another recently created folder and its contents did not back up. The attributes of both folders appear to be the same.

Notes FYI:
To date I have tried the suggestions I found on the forum, including unticking "Ignore NTFS junction points (reparse points)".
My OS is Windows 11.
My files are on OneDrive synced to my pc and all files are permanently saved on pc.
I have previously successfully backed up my folders, but haven't done so for a while on this pc.
I have today updated to latest version of SyncBackFree.

Thanks in advance for your input.

I have partially resolved this. I found the backup was set to go to a different folder.
