-[TC 8.51RC1]Synchronize dirs bug (hidden/system)

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

-[TC 8.51RC1]Synchronize dirs bug (hidden/system)

Post by *retalv »

Win7 x64

If you turn off the display of hidden and system files, synchronization tries to synchronize them also.

For example, in the root of the disc is proposed synchronization $RECICLE.BIN\<userkey>\ if the trash is not empty and you try to synchronize the root in a subfolder of another drive.

H-m, confirmed, however it was always so (TC 7.56a does so too) so I think it is by design.

This isn't a bug, it's a separate setting.

From the help:

wincmd.ini
SyncHideHiddenSystem=0

Allows to exclude hidden/system files from synchronizing:
0: Do not hide hidden/system files
1: Hide if the files on both sides have hidden or system attribute
2: Hide if any of the two files has hidden or system attribute
Add 4: Consider hidden/system flag in main program
The main problem here is that a file "example.ext" may have hidden/system attributes on the left and not on the right side, or vice versa. Therefore I decided to include them in the default settings to avoid confusion.

I understand, but unless something was wrong or that it is understood in a different way, the parameter 4 does not seem to work ...

Conversely parameter 2 does his duty.

There is no parameter 4, you have to add 4 to the other parameters.

sh**! :oops:

Thank you, the correct parameter is 6.

(I had also tried to "add" 4 after 2 aka "24", but not the simple addition ... I'm a fool ... :roll: )
