SyncBackPro versions

v9.3 [Feb 25, 2020]
User Interface.
- Completely new modern and clean user interface with an optional dark mode. All the graphics have been changed. Care has been taken to simplify and modernize the interface but keeping it familiar to users of older versions.
- Per-monitor DPI scaling, so windows are scaled depending on the monitor they are on.
- The default font is now larger, and the same font as used in Windows 10 (Segoe UI 10 point).
- The log file has been modernized and improved to make them clearer. The HTML log file now includes embedded graphics. More summary detail also provided. It also now shows the total time a profile was paused.
- In the File & Folder Selection window, you can now include/exclude files/folders without needing to first expand the folder.
- In the File & Folder Selection window, you can now include/exclude files/folders and apply to all sub-folders.
- The File & Folder Selection window, Differences window and File Prompt window now shows the source on the left when the profile is a backup/mirror from FTP, cloud, etc. to a local drive.
- New simplified Restore wizard. Includes option not to move files on restore and other options.
- In the main window you can filter based on the profile name.
- In File & Folder selections, you can export and import the selections.
- When profiles finish, SyncBack can now automatically exit, reboot or logout instead of just shutting down.
- The File & Folder selections window now has last modified column.
- Non-critical errors have been removed and are now warnings.
- You can now list all the shared settings, which profiles are using them (if any) and delete the unused ones.
- You can now skip a SyncBack new version. For example, if you are on v9.0 and v9.1 is available then you can ignore the new version. If a version is ignored, you will not be prompted again until a newer version, e.g. V9.2, is available. However, if you do a manual update check then it will always tell you a newer version is available.
Delta Copy.
- Delta-copy versioning when copying files from one file system to another. Only the changes between files are stored, which greatly reduces disk space for large files such as virtual machines, databases, etc.
Cloud.
- OVH cloud support added.
- hubiC cloud support added.
- WebDAV support added.
- Egnyte support added.
- Google Photos support added.
- Uses new Azure REST API, so can upload larger files (4.75 TB).
- Supports restoring files archived in Azure.
- S3 Storage Class and new Azure Blob Tier. Previously could only set S3 Storage class, but now can do it with Azure.
- Supports One Zone-Infrequent Access and Intelligent Tiering storage classes on Amazon S3.
- Can now use Service Account Private Key files with Google Storage.
- Dropbox API updated, support for Dropbox Business.
- Backblaze B2 API updated.
- Can use Bing speech, so native language speech supported.
FTP.
- Two new FTP/FTPS engines and one new SFTP engine added for improved FTP server compatibility.
- Supports new faster scanning method in CompleteFTP (requires V12.1.0 or newer).
- FTP support improved (MFF, RMDA and AVBL supported). Tested again with FTP servers to improve performance and compatibility.
- FTP time zone setting improved (if you use ! as first character then it overrides what the FTP server reports, e.g. !-480).
- Can restore from multi-zip files copied from an FTP server to a local drive.
SyncBack Touch.
- Delta-copy (over the network) upload and download to Touch (Windows only).
- Can shutdown remote Touch server (Android only, must be V1.3.11 or newer of Touch).
- Better user feedback when searching for SyncBack Touch devices.
SyncBack Monitor.
- A new Android application which you can use to stop, start, pause and resume profiles running on your computer (on the same local network).
Performance.
- Parallel file multi-zip (when copying to or from internal/external drive, network share, etc.).
- Parallel local file deletes (internal/external drive, network share, etc.).
- Parallel cloud file uploads and downloads: S3, Azure, Egnyte, Backblaze B2, Rackspace/OpenStack and Google Storage (if using private key).
- Profile backups are now much faster.
Scheduler.
- In a profile schedule you can now view/set run time limit.
- In a profile schedule you can now decide what to do if scheduled task is already running.
- When creating new schedules, the default is not to run the schedule again if it is already running. In V8 it would run it in parallel, which can cause issues as the same profile cannot be run in parallel.
Misc.
- Files the user does not have read access rights to can now be copied to the cloud, FTP, FTPS, SFTP, Touch and MTP. Also, files copied from the cloud can replace local files the user does not have write access rights to.
- SMART checks also check the drive health. Extra detailed information about the drive is logged.
- Option to skip temporary files (enabled by default).
