Will not delete files in the target folder thorugh FTP

Post by autoexpress »

I'm doing one-way sync from my local computer to a remote computer through FTP. In the settings, I have selected "Mirror: Delete file in the target folder if it is not in the source folder." When I delete a file from the source, it will not delete the file from the target. Am I doing something wrong?

Please start the preview of the task to see if there is any error response.
And please check if you are using the latest version now.

There are no errors. This is the newest version.

I also have BestSync set up on another computer. Except this one is set to synchronize the other way. That is, it is a one-way sync in which the target is the local computer, the source is the remote computer through FTP. The same issue happens in that setup. If I delete a file in the source, it is not deleted in the destination. Please let me know what settign I may have wrong.

Have you set the "Filtering" by time, if you have selected this kind of filtering, if an old file is deleted, because its timestamp is out of the range, it will not be deleted from the otherside, please donot use any time filtering option.
