Hi everyone,
I've recently been having the following problem: When I start a backup to a portable hard drive connected directly to my PC, all modified data, along with the date and attributes, are correctly transferred to the backup and saved.
However, when I transfer this data to my private cloud (a hard drive connected to a Fritzbox) via \\fritz.nas\Privatcloud\Volume\My Documents\Documents\, the files are overwritten, but the dates and attributes aren’t changed.
Both profiles—for saving to the hard drive and to the private cloud—are identical, though (except, of course, for the respective destination path).
Could this possibly be a bug, since I believe this used to work with older versions, but I'm not sure?
Does anyone have any ideas?
Operationsystem: Win 11 (64-bit) 25H2 Build 26200.8894
Syncback V12.0.17.0 (32-bit)
Best regards and thanks,
ASF

Re: Date and attributes are not changed
I received the following response from 2BrightSparks:
Many devices like FTP, NAS drives, cloud servers does not allow us to change the last modification date/time stamps of the copied files. Thus, the last modification date/time stamps are set to the date/time they are copied to the device. This could be the cause of the issue you are experiencing.
