Expert Mode: Compare Options, Attributes Settings

 

·Do not copy read-only files: If enabled then read-only files are not copied. This option is useful when a source code control system is used, for example.

 

·Do not copy hidden files: If enabled then hidden files are not copied.

 

·Do not copy system files: If enabled then system files are not copied.

 

·Only copy files that do have the archive attribute set: If enabled then only files which have the archive attribute set (on) will be copied.

 

·Attributes to watch: SyncBackSE can be configured to watch for file attribute changes. Note that some attributes are not supported on some file systems. Only the NTFS file system supports all the attributes. FAT32/FAT16 file systems support only the Archive, Hidden, Read Only, and System attributes.

 

note

Note that SAMBA and non-Windows file systems may not support some of the attributes, or may require further configuration to support them.

 

When a files attributes are changed, SyncBackSE will copy the file. If hashing is used, then the file is not copied if the files contents are identical, and instead only the files attributes are changed.
