behinduall Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 There's a confirmation for removing a file on the Android app but its not available on Windows. And I am not sure why. Whenever I want to remove something from my currently using PC, I always have to make sure I don't accidentally press the wrong button. I have lost some data already because this hasn't been implemented. Please implement this tiny 'feature' quickly as this should not be the case especially when one single button press could delete potentially everything from all devices.

AlexLe Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 +1. This is really dangerous, a misclick and you can accidentially delete data. Worst case, you won't even notice it. If you look for the data, say a year later, a rolling backup might even have it deleted by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy+ Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 Finally is a remark with no content on my experience. No data are delete, is only the peer. Further, with that Update cycles of Resilio I think in the coming time is no view on such minor things. 🤔🧐😇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have lost files due to this. A random twitch when trying to select Remove from THIS device and the files are gone for good. I work with some very large files and can't spare the space to use the archive for all my shares either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 in Sync power user settings change "disable_remove_from_all_devices" to true. You won't have this option in context menu. But if you will need to propagate deletion, you will need to first convert the file to placeholder and then delete the placeholder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
