Been a while since I switched a machine. I use windows and had internal HDs. From memory all I had to do was export/copy the sync keys for each drive on the old machine, install resilio on the new machine, re-attach the drives, copy the original sync key for each drive/mapping in resilio, let the machine re-index (can be a very long time) the content and that was it. Do no create new sync key on the new box. Why you are getting the reconnect error I guess that could be your new device is not reaching out/finding your remote device. I'd check on the router ports etc. But you want no comms/connection to the remote device until you have done the above.

IE11 is no longer supported by MS or anyone really now. (also now that means its dangerous to use as not receiving security updates and the bad ppl out there will still be trying to hack through it) You need to upgrade to MS Edge or Chrome if only to improve your web browsing security.

Hello, I sync 4 drives (E: F: G: H: ) to 4 other identical sized drives on another box. I need to expand my storage space. So am thinking on buying a larger HD to replace the E: . As the drive is so large am thinking of moving F: and G: data into E: (not partitioning the E:). If I was to do this on both the source and destination drives will a big re-sync or some sorft of error occur? Thanks and cheers

Thanks for that. Been using Resilio for years and never knew those options were available. Checking Date Synced gives the info, Last Transferred though gives me no data at all. Cheers

Something I've noticed is that my sending server will say it is complete as soon as it has processed data to be syncd, even though the data is not not on the remote server yet (still in process off syncing). Would be good if the the sending server can see/record/log the status of the receiving server (historical/live time).

OK, great thanks. Got it. Cheers

Cheers carlo, What do you mean though by "current connection string"? D you mean the long passphrase that is shared by both PC 1 and PC 2 to connect/allow data transfer? If so, sure I would have to create new as PC 1 is the source? Cheers again

Hello all, Using Win 10, I run a one way backup from PC 1 to PC 2 over the internet approx 12Tbs on individual internal sata drives, PC 1 motherboard just bit the dust, so now am sourcing a new motherboard which means a new install of Win 10 and Resilio. I always backup my Resilio data from the Profiles folder and the raw/sync data on the additional drives are intact and safe. What do I do here? Is it case of on PC 2 unlinking/fogetting PC1 in Resilio, Setting up PC 1 from scratch and linking to PC 2 again, which I think will not mean a resync but will take a long time for PC 1 to check see the remote PC 2 has the data? Or can I import the original config/index from the now dead machine for a quikcer more seemless transition/reconnect? Thanks and cheers

Hello all, I've this odd problem with my Soure repeatedly stating it is adding files for sync in the History tab but in fact these files have alrady been successfully sync'd to the remote destination. When the Destination has sync'd the data first time round I see no other mention that it needs to or will sync again on that box. I mainly sync'd Japanese TV media for backup purposes so some of the files will have Japanese characters in the filename but so does alot more media that is not constantly flagged for syncing. I've checked the folder/file perms and they are the same as other data that has sync'd. Tried moving the data to another Source folder and deleting the Destination copy but after the initial sycn is till being flagged for Sync again. Additionally the data is not been changed in anyway on the Source, the file name/structure is not too long (much shorter than other sync'd data) Just to reiterate, although the Source flags the data as Added (needs to sync) no sync actually takes place as the Destination is already sync'd. Both my Source and Destination are Win 10x64 machines. Any ideas? Cheers EDIT: OK so I discovered something. My media is stored on PC1, I use a robocopy script to mirror my data to PC2 (Resilio Source). Resilio fires up and indexes the data to sync to the Destination. (as above). Resilio is changing the data on PC2 somehow that when the Robocopy script runs again the next day, robocopy detects changed data and re-mirrors the data from PC1 (which is not touched by Resilio) to PC2 (Resilio Source) which means it overwrites the data in PC2 and then Resilio reindexes it again. It like a vicous circle. I cannot understand though why this is happening with a small subset of data that is mirrored from PC1 to PC2 (Resilio Source) with robocopy that is nealy 10TB in total and then Resilio is marking/changing some data that is causing the mirror, index loop!

Hello, Am looking at this howto here: https://help.resilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/207370466-Encrypted-folders I've done a test and can see my data is encrypted at the destination (both ends are Windows). What I just do not get is if I need to recover the encrypted data how doI decrypt it? I guess I decrypt on the destination server and then sync back or copy to usb for example? Can anyone guide me on this please and the ctual process to decrypt? Cheers

Thanks very much for that confirmation. Cheers

Hello, For many years I've being running a 1 to 1 sync. eg: Source PC: Drive E: >>>>> Destination PC1: Drive E: Source PC: Drive F: >>>>> Destination PC1: Drive F: I'd now like to bring in a 2nd Destinaton PC but it will not have the same drive setup as the source. eg: Source PC (and Desination PC1) drive E and F are 4Tb each. Total of 8Tb. The new 2nd destination PC will have a single 8tb drive to sync to. Without partitioning it, can I sync to 2 folders on PC2 (to mimic Drive E and F) while still syncing to 2 drives on PC1? Cheers

Morning all, I've just tried the "Search" function https://help.resilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/205457725-How-do-I-perform-a-search-in-Sync- on my 2 instances. Sadly noether of them return any results. I've searched for folders that I know and see are on both the local and remote box. The results come back as "No folders matchting:......" Do I need to enable anything for search to work? I've nver used search before in previous versions so do nto want ot say this is down to 2.7 Thanks

Hello, Been banging my head against a wall on this for a few hours now. I'm trying to start the Reslio service via a batch file that would then by run at X time via the Task Scheduler. Problem with this is that I am getting an "access denied" as the command needs to be run in an elevated cmd prompt. The basic command I am running is: net start rslsyncsvc I have set the logon account for this service as a local admin account and have set Task Scheduler to run with highest permissions etc but I do not seem to be bale to run this bat file with a simple double click or even including runas /savecred /user:............ in the batch file. Any ideas how to get this running without having to manually open an elevated cmd prompt? Thanks and cheers EDIT: I should have also stated that I can start the service fine manually from Services or right click and run as admin. The kicker is. I have a 2nd identical Win 10 box that has the same batch file an only contains: net start rslsyncsvc If I manually double click or add into Task Scheduler the service will start with no problems/questions and USC is set to the same default on box boxes

Thanks, Coincidentally I did try this with moving one of the drives (destination PC) and reattaching to the original source machine.. Yes, for the most part they only did resync (quite a few hours, which I was surprised about that time) but some data did retransfer. Not sure why that occurred as beforehand resilio was happy and from what I could see all was sync'd 100%.
