Problem with encrypted flash drive (synchronize dirs)

Post by *H100 »

I have a Kingston Data Traveller Vault. This is an encrypted USB flash key.

When I use Total Commander with this disk, everything seems fine, except the most needed feature: synchronize directories.

If I use this function to compare a dir on my hard drive and the data on the data traveller vault, Total Commander does not "see" the data on the USB key.

Very strange, as normal file operations are all possible.

I am using Total Commander version 7.50a under Windows XP (Home and Pro version)

Thanks for the help.

The sync tool uses the same functions as normal file lists. Make sure that all the buttons (directional and singles/duplicates) are pressed.

Well, I guess you must be right, being the author.
I had the problem on two different computers but reformatted the USB drive and now the problem is gone and everything works fine.
I don't think I did anything wrong (I have used the sync function a zillion times in the last years).

Weird :shock:. But I guess I was wrong, sorry for that. And I'm happy that it works anyway!
