sync permanently deleted file
fortunately i used a test directory.
source is my internal C:drive | destination is my Y:drive external usb 3 dock
source files synced to destination
deleted one of the source files to test syncing
- source file went to recycle bin
- destination file was deleted
restored file from recycle bin
- file appeared in source directory
- file was deleted from source directory and not put into recycle bin to restore
I duplicated this process a 2nd time. Now i'm pretty nervous about trusting my files to this system.
I have 270GB of photos that I would like to mirror copy with overwrite updated files only. I'm starting to think True Image is not my solution.
in addition to the deleting issue, there's not a lot of info given when syncing. eventually a bar will show up to guesstimate progress; you have to use the system tray icon to see actual progress. you also dont see the speed of the transfer rate, which would be nice.

I reported this last year and it has yet to be fixed. I can reproduce the same problem at will when replacing an old file with a new one. Not by overwriting, but by deleting the old file and copying in the new one. All files are lost. Not recoverable.
