FoldersSynchronizer
Apr 29 2006

HOPETINDALL  I purchased FS in summer 2005.

Unfortunately - I haven't been able to run it since - as it damages the permissions on my SOURCE disk every time I run it.

There seems to be some problem with the software's handling of symlinks.

In the interim - I've been using the much less functional 'Deja Vu' - as this doesn't do damage to my disk like Folders Synchronizer.

The author was initially responsive to my emails - despite an early offer of refund (which i turned down hoping the problem would be fixed) - he now doesn't seem to want to give me a refund and hasn't seemed to have addressed the problem either.

I really hope he fixes this software so I can use it again. When it works - it's great. But I don't want something messing up my disk.

SWATSON  HI, you were using v3.6b - a beta version. They have now released a finished version (not beta). Do you still have the same problems...?

HOPETINDALL  Update:

Software vendor supplied a refund.

I asked him if the new version has fixed the permissions/soft link problem. Unfortunately it hasn't.

He advises on July 17, 2006 that the new version 3.6.0 is just a universal version of 3.5.4.
