Special Safety Warnings

Super Flexible File Synchronizer now includes additional safety checks to avoid accidental deletion of files. It is important to be aware of these safety checks because they can prevent your profiles from being carried out if you ignore them. The safety checks must be individually configured or turned off in each profile.

When a profile is executed and more files are going to be deleted than allowed by the new safety checks, then the user must confirm the deletions even in unattended mode. Without the confirmation, the profile will not be executed.

The safety checks have been designed to catch the following situations:

- files have been accidentally deleted on one side of a synchronization
- incomplete or empty FTP directories are received due to bad communication

Especially when incompletely received FTP directory listings could cause the profile to delete files, it is recommended to keep the new safety checks on (but you can change the pecentages that trigger the warnings).
