Preferences Main Menu
Skip Differences Window
Whenever you run a profile, it will compare the source and destination, and display the results in the Differences Window. However, you can skip this window by ticking this menu item. Note that the Differences window is never displayed if you run SyncBack with command line parameters (e.g. from the Windows Task Scheduler), or if a profile is run in the background, or if there are no differences. In most cases there is no need to display this window, except if you want to check to see what the differences are. The Differences window is always displayed when doing a Simulated Run or Simulated Restore.
Show Groups Only
Only group profiles will be listed in the display if this menu item is ticked, otherwise all profiles are listed.
Disable Hibernate/Standby
If this item is ticked then SyncBack will stop your computer from hibernating or going into standby power saving modes if any profiles are running. If your computer is using batteries this option is disabled and cannot be used. Note that if your computer is running on batteries, and your batteries are low, SyncBack will automatically pause all running profiles and display a warning message. SyncBack can put your computer into hibernate or standby mode after profiles are run. For more information, see the page Command Line Parameters.
Start With Windows
If ticked, SyncBack will start after Windows is rebooted. It will start minimized.
Stop Background Backups From Starting
If ticked, any profiles set to run in the background will not be started. This does not affect tasks in the Windows Task Scheduler.
Font Selection
You can change the default font used by SyncBack. This font is used on all screens. Note that the style, e. g. bold, will be used when displaying filenames, but will not be used for text labels, buttons, etc. The font size is fixed at 8. Changing the font (and it's Script) is useful when using other languages with SyncBack.
Double-click Action
You can select what action SyncBack should take when you double-click on a profile.
Log Settings
By default the log file, produced when a profile is run, is created in HTML format. By selecting this menu item you can change the log file format, or choose not to create a log file at all.
Open .sps files with SyncBack
Exported profiles have the filename extension of SPS. If another program has set itself as the default program for opening SPS files, then this menu item will appear allowing you to change it back to SyncBack.
Minimize To Tray
If this item is ticked then SyncBack will minimize to the system tray (also called the Notification area in Windows XP) instead of to the task bar.
Minimize On Close
If this item is ticked then SyncBack will minimize instead of closing (exiting) when the Close button (the X button in the applications title bar) is clicked. In this case you must click the Exit button to close SyncBack.
Minimize On Run
If this item is ticked SyncBack will minimize automatically when a profile is run.
