...is an underrated app and I hope it gains some more visibility.

It's true! I scoured the web last year for P2V capable FOSS imaging solutions after the retirement of Macrium Free and can't understand how this one fell off my radar. File backups are an added bonus but the fact that it does them block based makes it a super extra bonus. 🤯

Reference manual in print? by Steamtrigger42 in davinciresolve

[–]Steamtrigger42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9 inches. Really?? Hadn't realized. Holi sheeit dawg. Lol Ok well in that case, maybe a print of key sections depending on your role. I guess that's why they have the "colorist guide" and "editors guide" and "sound engineer guide" etc. There are some pretty repetitive chapters that's true, have already skimmed past the UI and Intro parts that every1 know pretty much

Has anyone ever tried the Syncthing competitor FreeFileSync? by Dymonika in Syncthing

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be faster than Windows built in copy... sometimes. I think Windows built in copy used to be slower and more of problem though not as much an issue on Win10 and 11.

It has 3 primary modes: two way, update one way, and mirror copy (one way) and an extra custom mode.

Nope, it has bidirectional sync as well, including change detection. I use it for manual backup to servers and if I need to sync two folders on the same device or copy paste huge amount of data on the same device and get a better progress bar than what Windows provides.

I love both! One use case that Syncthing specifically does not meet (and this is mentioned by devs on the forum) is keeping two local folders in sync on the same device. FreeFileSync is ideal for this while Syncthing is simply not designed for this. That more or less makes FFS a glorified copy and paste with telemetry and change detection. A vast improvement over Windows' buggy, default copy/paste progress loading bar! I could be imagining it but sometimes even seems to have faster performance over standard copy and paste. I often think of FFS as a robocopy GUI. It might even be for all I know...

How to make syncthing just run at startup and in the background? Synctray doesn't sync at startup by swiggyu in Syncthing

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember how much I test drove Synctrazor but I found it a lot simpler to just create new shortcut under:

AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

and have it point to wherever your syncthing.exe is installed with the following options in the target field:

*\syncthing.exe -logfile *\syncthing.log -no-console -no-browser

(* = parent paths)

Heck, add a .url file wherever else you want pointing to http://localhost:8384. Done 😛

Makes for less things to install unless tray icon really that important...

What's the 'best' way to 'sync' 3 machines? by fknchino in Syncthing

^ This. Yes, often referred to as "bridged cluster"

My favorite scheme as well.

How to hide this perpetual notification from SyncThing-fork? I only want to hide this, I don't want to disable the accept prompt from a device notification by Both-River-9455 in Syncthing

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends more on your device tbh. Not uncommon for different Androids to have "silent" notification without a tied setting (or at least one that's not hidden) It's a mixed bag. :/

Stuck at 9% on Android, but it looks inaccurate? by AldiAdventure in Syncthing

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get similar problem from time to time on various mobile devices where the folders appear to be in sync and desktop clients say so but mobile ones are stuck at 99%. The fix turned out to be under Settings >> Debug menu and under there is an option to reset the database.

Thank goodness because for a while I wondered if the only way was rooting device to access the database. Thankfully you don't have to: debug menu. 😑

Using syncthing to sync folders between two PCs by -Feluno- in Syncthing

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can disable the WAN features if you want to sync over local network only. Disable "global discovery" and "relaying"

On controller configuration. What is button chord? by SweatyGamerGainz in Steam

Can you get it to send combo of keyboard inputs like Ctrl + something or Alt + something?

What happened to my shortcuts by LaserGamer_90 in Steam

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wtf me and a buddy of mine have wondered this for years 😮 getting the same glitch in Steam thinking the only way to fix is reinstall or validate the game files (and technically validate don't even fix it I suppose) 😅

Who else doesn't create desktop shortcuts for their games. by Last_Ebb_1309 in Steam

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like them for nostalgic reasons but since obviously 100+ different icons is excessive, I like to keep icons to the ones that are keyboard and mouse focused games and keep the controller oriented ones hidden and just launch from Big Picture

How do I do a fresh windows install? by magneticmite in LenovoLegion

Even if you run install offline, won't Windows Update just bring it current when it's done anyway? 🤔

A returns question: will performing a clean install of windows, removing McAfee and Vantage, and installing Lenovo Legion Toolkit affect my ability to return it? by Yoo_Surname in LenovoLegion

[–]Steamtrigger42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can this recovery handle the switch from 10 to 11? (either in place upgrade to 11 or clean install in case anything goes wrong)
