[Latest desktop build 2.6.1]

Can you confirm the bug and a fix where random files just fail to sync with error "These files cannot be downloaded as there are no source peers online for too long time." even though other files in the same dir got sync'd before and after and that the peer is definitely online ? This is super annoying and with no resolution in almost 2 months of experiencing this, I need to start thinking about using something else.

A workaround other than manually just copying the file yourself, which is what I've been doing. 

 

Or a workaround to upgrading non-service installs from the Roaming folder?

I can't deal with that "files cannot be downloaded" bug, so I downgraded to 2.5.13. Hopefully, the devs will get their acts together and fix that nasty bug.

after upgrading to 1.6.1 i keep getting the no source peers online, even though ever peer is online and some even have the file and it has synced, but still says cant sync the file :/

Yes, I have same exact issues as well, and while I tried to address them manually, they will keep coming back for more files that it can't seem to download. I have since downgraded back to 2.5.13

[Latest desktop build 2.6.1]

One key thing I noticed is that even with Resilio Sync program completely shut down, some unknown process is taking a hold of the program file; thus preventing any types of operation (such as deletion, renaming etc).

%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Resilio Sync\Resilio Sync.exe

Under Process Explorer, I can't figure out what is taking a hold of the file, but explorer.exe is taking a hold of some DLL extensions such as ShellExtensionPath64_515.dll. I also shut down my AntiVirus program too, so it is definitely not the virus scanning program.

[New Resilio Version syncing some but not all files]

I am seeing the same issue under 2.6.1

I am debating about downgrading back to 2.5.13 as well.

For those that ran into the following error

there is a workaround for non-Service installation (Windows 10 specific)

You can launch Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc). Under Startup tab, Disable "Resilio Sync" from launching.
Log out, and Log back in, but do not launch Resilio Sync
Open Windows Explorer and browse to %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Resilio Sync
Rename Resilio Sync.exe to Resilio Sync.exe.old
Rename Resilio Sync.exe.new to Resilio Sync.exe

You can go back to Task Manager to re-enable Resilio Sync for startup
You can then either log out and log back in or launch Resilio manually.

2.6.1 runs now, but it now uncovers a ton of warnings...files it can't download etc. I have yet to figure out what is going there.

@jdrch, ahh oops. My original response was meant for @skst.

I understand your logic about why you run your Resilio Sync as Service. However, I am so used to non-service installations that I don't feel like making the switch for Windows (I have service based installation on Linux Server).

Is there an upgrade log that I can look into why the upgrade fails for non-service installation?

[Latest desktop build 2.6.1]

@skst , you are definitely NOT alone here. I have 3 machines running Windows 10 April 2018 Release, and they all have troubles upgrading to 2.6.1 (from 2.5.13). There is no Windows service running either

[Btsync On My Mac Is Still In 1.3, Do I Have To Manually Upgrade To 1.4?]

I forced BTSync to check for update on my Mac, but it still says that it is running the latest version. Well, currently, it is running 1.3, but does not seem to detect newer 1.4. Does that mean I will have to manually upgrade to 1.4? Or Do I simply just keep on waiting and eventually it will upgrade to 1.4?
 

Thanks

[BitTorrent Sync for iOS Bug reports and feature requests]

I actually sent an email to syncapp@bittorrent.com just a sec ago, but just want to check with you guys and see if you also experience something like below.

 

Issue 1: I can see ghost files from the iOS SyncApp that I would otherwise not see on desktop/laptop computers. It happens when you use apps that support multi-conneciton download (aria2, FlashGet etc). During the download process, the downloader program creates temporary files with ".part" file extensions (so they would be joined together once the download completes). After download finishes, the temporary part files would be removed, but I can still see them under iOS and Android. It means that I can't download them, because the files aren't there. I can't delete them, but well, again, files really are not there anymore.

 

Issue 2: on iOS, the video play back has improved much, but it is still missing the pause button.

Two requests rolled into one

As an Amazon Kindle Fire owner, I would like to see BitTorrent Sync available on the Amazon Android App store!

Either that, or can we get the APK file so that we can install manually on Kindle Fire
