Satimsi. Problem with size copied folders

Post by satimsi »

Hello to all. First of all forgive my Englishman. My problem is that I have realized that in several clients in whom I have installed Fbackup, the size of the target folders (on an external disk usb) is smaller that on the disc origin. It makes me think that the copy has not been done well. In the files of log neither errors nor warnings appear. I have FBackup updated to the last version that exists in the web. Say to me that I can do. Thank you in advance and regards.

Hi,

In Backup Properties->Filters, there are some filters for temporary files/folders and system files.
You can try to uncheck those filters and see if the size is the same.

Hi,

Please restore the backup to another location, then compare the source files and the restored files using a comparison application (as Beyond compare) to see where is the difference.
