himselfv Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Hello! I'm using Resilio Sync to backup DCIM folder from mobile. After the photos are synced I delete them after a while. Recently I've deleted and re-added the read-only share on the PC, and it tried to download all files I've ever had in DCIM, since more than a year ago. Most of those files were "unavailable". So as I suspected, Sync "remembers" old files even after they're deleted. How do I reset this index or limit it to something like a month of time? I've suspected this because over time mobile Sync's "local data" grew pretty big (700Mb) which is inconvenient. So that's another reason I want to limit/reset the index.

Andy+ Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Depending on the OS on your PC you find a working folder, in which files like *.db and *.db-wal are stored. Stop Resilio and delete such files and start again. Then a new indexing is starting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himselfv Posted September 16, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 That's on the PC, but in my case the backup is from Android. I suppose .db files are in /storage/emulated/Android/data/com.resilio.sync/ but it appears empty without rooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
