New in Syncovery 9.39 (Oct 8, 2021)

  • Syncovery can now remember when a file was deleted. You can restore to a specific time and date in the past and get only the files which were not deleted at that time. Version 9.39 adds a checkmark “Remember deletion time and date” to the tab sheet Files->Deletions in each profile. This option should be used with “Move Deleted Files Into A Specific Folder…” but it can also remember the deletion date if deleted files are preserved in the “Older” folder specified on the Versioning tab sheet.
  • The checkmark “Restore deleted items” from the General Filters tab sheet will now retrieve deleted files from both “Older” folders as well as “folders for deleted files”.

  • Additional smaller improvements, such as a corrected tab order of controls on the FTP dialog.

New in Syncovery 9.38e (Jul 26, 2021)

  • Fixes downloading from Box cloud, which was broken due to a change on the Box servers.

New in Syncovery 9.38c (Jul 11, 2021)

  • Fixes a cloud listing problem, which affected only profiles that sync against the root folder of a cloud drive, when using the changes-based listing method. Some folders and files may have appeared as bogus duplicates in the root, in addition to their actual location further down the hierarchy.

  • Now completely compatible with storadera.com, an Amazon S3-compatible storage service.
  • Adds the ability to specify the column separator for actions log CSV files with Syncovery.ini entries like this: ActionsCSVLogFile=C:TestsActions-$PROFILENAME.csv; ActionsCSVLogFileColDelim=;

  • Now defaults to using the mac API copyfile function rather than the internal copying algorithm, for better compatibility with some network storages.

In the past, the cache database could often be slower than the destination storage itself in terms of building the file list. Now the database should be at least as fast as locally attached SSD drives.
  • To use Amazon Cloud Drive, click the Internet button and choose Amazon Cloud Drive as protocol.

New in Syncovery 7.20 RC 1 (Oct 22, 2015)

New in Syncovery 7.17 (Jun 1, 2015)

  • The Google Drive protocol now completely replaces the Google Docs protocol, which has been shut down by Google. Previous Google Docs jobs will automatically use document conversion where chosen. New jobs and previous Google Drive jobs need to have document conversion enabled if desired. The checkmark is on the second tab sheet of the Internet dialog. Note that the available file types for conversion have been updated on the Google Docs tab sheet.
  • Fixes a few cloud related issues (especially around authentication and refreshing tokens).

New in Syncovery 7.15d (May 15, 2015)

  • Fixes issues with Gmail, and the Email protocol as storage.

New in Syncovery 7.20 Beta 2 (Mar 27, 2015)

  • Includes SyncoveryCL, the new command line version of Syncovery.
  • Scheduled and background jobs can be set to be run by this GUI-less process, which makes the GUI and the scheduler more stable because the profiles run in separate processes. You will find the checkmark for this on the Preferences dialog, tab sheet Performance. This also means you can run jobs in the background manually by right-clicking them on the Profile Overview, and then close Syncovery. The jobs will continue running in an invisible background process, but they do report their progress information to the GUI.

New in Syncovery 7.10b (Mar 4, 2015)

  • The OneDrive protocol can now access folders shared with you. To access them, click the browse button next to the “Container” field on the Internet dialog.

  • Can replace files with folders, or folders with symlinks etc., and vice versa. See also v7.08 for Windows below.
  • Additional fixes.

New in Syncovery 7.07b (Jan 20, 2015)

  • Fixes a new OneDrive uploading bug.
  • Fixes a bug in folder-oriented real-time mode that could cause bogus errors in the log file and create empty folders on drive C: even if it was not part of the sync job.

New in Syncovery 7.00 Beta 32 (Oct 7, 2014)

  • All libraries updated, i.e. new code for many features such as Zipping, FTP, SFTP, HTTP, as well as all other Internet Protocols
  • Includes latest OpenSSL libraries on Windows, and SSL is now compatible with all known SMTP servers. On Mac, OpenSSL is part of MacOS, so Apple determines which version to include.
  • Simultaneous file deletions, renames, moves etc. (similar to files being copied in parallel, it will also be possible to have them be deleted in parallel to save time)
  • Multithreaded reading of folders in all cases except where a file list cache or a remote lister or one of the new cloud DLLs is used.
  • New Performance tab sheet on Program Settings dialog, as well as a threading option on the Files tab sheet in each profile.
  • Syncovery can now detect your Internet connection and run jobs only when a specific connection is active. See the Program Settings dialog, tab sheet “Startup”. The detection works based on the reverse DNS names which Syncovery gets by querying https://www.syncovery.com/whoami.php. You can click this link yourself to see which DNS name your Internet connection has.
  • File copying up to 100 files in parallel per job is allowed although not recommended. Folder scanning up to 500 threads, but performance may degrade substantially if using more than 50 threads.
  • Multithreaded multipart upload to Amazon S3 in order to maximize bandwidth usage. You can specify the number of threads on the Program Settings dialog, tab sheet “Cloud”. This setting will also be used for uploads to Glacier and Azure.
  • Support for MTP devices. You can now sync with any smartphone or camera including Android devices and iPhones. See the new “Device…” buttons below the left and right-hand paths when editing a profile in Advanced Mode.
  • Support for Windows Event Log and SugarSync cloud storage. Windows Events can be configured on the Program Settings dialog. Containers (buckets/vaults) can be chosen via a Browse dialog for Amazon S3, Glacier, Microsoft Azure, and SugarSync.
  • Support for Email as Internet Protocol that can be used for syncing, i.e. you can send and receive files via email using a Syncovery profile. All of the new cloud services are now compiled into the main exe files, so that fewer DLLs are required, and the Setup program is now smaller than version 6.
  • A button “Alternate Data Streams” has been added to the Special tab sheet, which will show a dialog allowing to choose whether Alternate Data Streams should be copied along with the files or not (Windows only). Stripping them from the files may have the advantage that Windows forgets that a file was copied over the network and removes the security prompt when opening it. However, in other cases, Alternate Data Streams may contain valuable information. The default is to copy them along with the main data in the file.
  • Folders for deleted files can now be relative to the base folder, and you can also use a separate Deleted folder in each subfolder. Examples are shown on the “Folder for deleted files” dialog.
  • When synchronizing with a server or any network folder, a configuration file can now be imported at the beginning of the sync. That way, members of work groups can be forced to all use the same profile settings.

New in Syncovery 6.71b (Oct 7, 2014)

  • Uses much less memory for processing Amazon Glacier file lists.
  • Uses a little less memory for processing Amazon S3 file lists.

  • Additional minor fixes.

New in Syncovery 5.69 (Mar 13, 2012)

  • Turns off the option "Use Cache Database for Source" for all existing profiles because apparently some users have chosen it without knowing what it does.
