letsmakeanotheracct_132923 Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 I've got a folder that already has all the data that all the other devices have, but btsync insists on re-downloading everything instead of just using the data I already have.

GreatMarko Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Are you sure the files are "identical"? (i.e. whilst file's physical content may be identical, if the file timestamps differ, Sync won't see them as identical, and they will transfer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsmakeanotheracct_132923 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Thank you for the reply. Yes, they're identical. It got to a point where I thought "enough of this" and just deleted everything and started fresh without any 1.4 folders (sigh). Entirely possible the whole thing was an user error since I have not had the patience to learn all the nuances of dealing with the different folder types. For future reference, you know what happens if I shutdown Sync and force the timestamps on each end to the same arbitrary time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
