Hi, That didn't seem to work either. Its still deleting files after the 30 day mark. Can I email your the Settings.dat file for verification? Thanks

Ok, I've done all that above and omitted the API key and the archive is still removing files after 30 days. I started BitTorrent with the config file and the Web UI is still loading and asking for a login. Is that what it should be doing? Am I missing something? { "storage_path" : "\Documents and Settings\"user"\Application Data\BitTorrent Sync", "use_gui" : true, "webui" : { "listen" ; "127.0.0.1:8888", "login" : "admin", "password" : "*********" }, "sync_trash_ttl" : 0 } Thanks

Hi GreatMarko, I created the config file and the batch file to start BitTorrent Sync, which both are in the following dir "C:\Program Files (x86)\BitTorrent Sync". I added the "sync_trash_ttl" : 0, to the config file but the archive files are still deleting after 30 days. Here's my config file set up: { "storage_path" : "C:\Documents and Settings\"user"\Application Data\BitTorrentSync", "use_gui" : true, "webui" : { "listen" ; "127.0.0.1:8888", "login" : "*****", "password" : "*******", "api_key" : "<<is this the Key generated in WebUI?>>" "sync_trash_ttl" : 0, } } Any ideas as to why its not working? Thanks for all your help

Thanks GreatMarko!

Thanks for replying GreatMarko! Windows Server 2003R2 64bit Couple of questions: 1) So my understanding is based off reading some other threads is that I can create a conf file and save it to the user acct "C:\Documents and Settings\"*********"\Application Data\BitTorrent Sync" or is it to "C:\Program Files (x86)\BitTorrent Sync"? 2) Here's How the config file looks based off previous threads. I'm not sure what the storage file is for, is that the path for the files I want to sync or the location of the Sync.exe file? { "storage_path" : "XXXXXX", "use_gui" : true, "webui" : { "listen" : "127.0.0.1:8888", "login" : "<XXXXXXX>", "password" : "<XXXXXXXX>", "api_key" : "<XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX>" } } 3) How would I incorporate the "sync_trash_ttl" into that file? Also do I need to incorporate the other settings or will it default to what I have set in the Web UI? 4) Finally, How do I start the BitTorrent sync from the config file? Would that be in the command line <<btsync.exe /config your_config_file.conf>> Thanks Again!

Hi, I have searched for hours trying to find the location of "sync_trash_ttl" on a windows machine. I'm using the web UI and its not under preferences and advanced or in the setting.dat in appdata. where is the location of this ever elusive setting? Thanks
