Hi,

I have installed BestSync on 2 Win10 PCs and i sync to a Linux Server with a samba share.

Now the problem is, if delete a file or a directory, or a message in Outlook 2017, it will be restored.

What can i do to fix this behavior?


Setup: --> see Pictures.

Please check if the time of your PC and the Linux server are synchronized.
You' better use NTP server to synchronize the time of both computers.

Please note that BestSync detects deleted /moved files from the second time of synchronization.
At the first time after the task is setup, BestSync can not detected deleted /moved files.

Sorry, but this is a senseless behavior!

When i delete a file, directory, or a mail, i don't want that it will be restored at the next synchronization.

Is there a way to fix this?

If the task is an one-way sync task, then you can select "Mirror Mode..." in "Delete" tab, BestSync can detect deleted files at the first time.
But if the task is a two-way sync task, at the first time synchronization after the task is setup, how can you tell if a file is added in Side1 or deleted from Side2?
If you want the task deletes files at the first time synchronization, please start the preview of the task, select the "Delete" action of the files that you want to delete manually, then start the synchronization. From the next synchronization, BestSync can detect deleted/moved/changed/added files.

I have tested synchronizing with Outlook again, BestSync worked fine.
The mirroring mode does delete mails that were deleted in Outlook.

I cannot select mirroring (->Spiegeln), because it is "grey"!
