slawson2000 Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 On one of my computers that I sync with, I an getting a few files that have no extension that are throwing a cannot sync error. I believe these to be a temp file and are just getting stuck in the system. How would one add files without extensions to the ignore list? Would the syntax be " ?. " Or is it something else. This computer also just had a fresh install of Sync but the folders and .sync folders were existing. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy+ Posted December 2, 2020 Report Share Posted December 2, 2020 Maybe use the documentation https://help.resilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/205458165-Ignoring-files-in-Sync-Ignore-List- Finally is the best to test it in a special folder. For me seems to have the values *. ????????. ???????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slawson2000 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2020 I have seen the documentation, but I could not rationalize the syntax for a file with no extension. I will play with your suggestions. I did not think to check if all those files had the same number of characters. Currently I am playing with touching the folders hard (renaming folders and naming them back). It seems to have cleared the errors. Time will tell if it sticks. Thanks.
