sea3pea0 Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 +1 Yes indeed, please add this feature. Same boat as everyone else, limited space on server. Would like to delete files on server and not have files deleted elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haigutus Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 As far as i know you could do this by setting the archive to forever (by default 30 days) and the node into read only mode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg85 Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 +1 from me as well. I have a setup where "the server" has a limited storage capacity which slowly fills. The data isn't important for the server, but it is for me as user so i like to sync it to my local machine and clear the server. This feature would allow me to do exactly that. Sure, (ab)using the archive capability can work as well, but it is slightly weird since the archive is in a hidden folder somewhere. It really smells like abusing a feature to get another feature.

chaka Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 This feature would be damn sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conservare Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 READ/WRITE works great, but disable DELETE is a feature first asked for almost four years ago. I guess it is not possible to implement this into Resilio Sync. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyo Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 +1, I could also use this feature. I have limited space on my laptop, so I'd like to put photos in a synced folder, let Sync do it's job, then delete the files from the laptop but keep them synced on other machines. When I was looking for this feature I imagined it as a "wormhole folder". Put some files in the folder, let them go through, keep them on the other side but delete them here. I guess this request thread is similar to my wish with one difference: let people do deleting themselves instead of automatic. Still acceptable for me.

narci2500 Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 +1 They have this feature on mobile to back up photos or any folder. They just need to replicate the algorithm to the desktop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJames Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 +1 I use this sync for offsite backup, but I don't necessarily want to keep everything! I would love to be able to delete a file and not have it removed. Exactly like the Android back up function. Please bring that to non-mobiles too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somederrick Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 +1 This is about to be a dealbreaker for me. I am getting really concerned about the fact that one user (who needs write access) could wipe out everything either accidentally or on purpose. The risk is just too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ergydion Posted October 21, 2018 Report Share Posted October 21, 2018 it boggles my mind that this feature doesn't exist as it really shouldn't be too hard to implement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibicle Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 6 years later, paid pro user here, made an account to say please implement this feature. Key to not inadvertently losing important data! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerf-qh Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 +1 The same with me: notebook backup (just 7days) -> NAS (∞) Photos (mobile with limited space) -> NAS (∞) I must delete files from my laptop\phone but still need them in my NAS Now I have to use rsync additionally to store these files in other directories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flappy Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 Seems like a simple fix to implement - have a "ignore deletes" check box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy.cze Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 This is simple incredible,  requested feature exist/existed for Android for years and it's still not available for desktop??? You guys, i know there is lot of feature requests coming, but this essential one which will allow to use sync for backup has still no priority?

Andy+ Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 On 6/18/2019 at 2:40 AM, flappy said: have a "ignore deletes" check box Don't confuse it now. Syncthing has the feature, Resilio doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
