Sync Options

You can specify a set of options as part of the sync.

Files to include

Specify the files to include in the FileSyncToy run. The default is * (for all files).

You can customize FileSyncToy to include only certain files, such as *.jpg to include only .jpg files, or .jpg;.bmp (separated by a semicolon) to include only files with those two extensions.

It is best to be as specific as possible when designating files to include, as in the example here: (.jpg;.bmp;*2023.doc).

If you enter text composed of three or four characters, FileSyncToy will assume you are searching for a file extension and added a wildcard (*) and a period to the start.

If you specify an * and other options, for example ;.bmp then the * will be removed.
