A bug was fixed causing Partial File Updating to re-copy all blocks in some cases.

A bug was fixed where the “Older versions” folder was read directly even though the destination cache is used, resulting in unnecessary delays and duplicate entries in the internal older versions list.
The database now remembers if the file details on an FTP server do not include the seconds, thus avoiding unnecessary re-uploading.
A UTC time of 00:00:30 was treated as a special case via Internet Protocols. The handling of this time has been improved.

Existing databases can continue being used. Only one-way backup jobs using the Destination Cache could be affected.

v6.65a for Windows (June 18, 2014):

Prevents OneDrive from scaling large photos down after upload. Existing scaled down photos will now be shown on the Sync Preview with their scaled down size, and the timestamp will have one minute subtracted so that Syncovery will by default re-upload such photos to get them on OneDrive in their original form.

Fixes an issue where the versioning mechanism would sometimes not delete the oldest file from the older versions but the previous newest one.
Fixes an issue in Exact Mirror where the Deletion Delay would also be applied to the options in the lower half of the dialog (Delete files not matching the criteria). The interface however suggests that the Deletion Delay would not be applied to these items, so this has been changed.

The WebDAV module can now handle files with question marks in the name (which should be replaced using the Replace Characters feature).

Cancels deletions if the folder for deleted files is not OK.
Cancels deletions if any subfolder cannot be read due to network issues.
Always double-checks the non-existence of folders.
Double-checks the non-existence of up to 100 files even if the double-check setting is off (on the tab sheet Files->Deletions).

Fixes some rsync issues.

Fixes a bogus error copying files and causing a “RETRY” that could happen when File Security Details was chosen for logging.
Fixes an access violation error when the Restore Wizard was used with a database as well as a folder pre-selection.

Mac only: fixes inability to zip some special filenames.
Mac only: fixes handling of colons in the base paths.

v6.11:

Fixes a rare problem when using the volume shadowing setting “Use For All, Create Shadow Before Building File List”.

Improves SmartTracking in detecting new empty folders versus deleted ones.
Fixes a rare “Not zip” error reading the file list.
Fixes Unicode / UTF-8 encoding of log and XML files.

Further improvements.

v6.09:

Fixes a few SmartTracking bugs.

v6.08a:

Fixes Unicode characters in folder names in the new real-time folder mode.

v6.07:

Shutdown on Windows XP has been fixed.
Additional information logged to the realtime status log (if enabled).
Profile information in the log files not includes the configuration file path as well as the last modification date and time of the profile.

v6.06:

Implements a new functionality for real-time synchronization in conjunction with a time window.
The program can now monitor the folders for changes all day long but do the copying only within the specified time window. To take advantage of this functionality the following settings need to be combined:
- Schedule: no schedule on the Schedule tab sheet
- Real Time Sync selected on the Monitoring/Realtime tab sheet
- Real Time Settings:
  - the checkbox “Run profile entirely once” must be deselected
  - “Process Complete Folders” must be chosen (on Windows only)
- Weekdays and Time Window:
  Specify the time window when it should do the copying.

v6.05:

Fixes a WebDAV incompatibility.

v6.03:

Macintosh: Now compatible with Mac OS X 10.8 “Mountain Lion”
Windows: Fixes printing of the Sync Preview which was broken.
Windows: Adds a checkmark under Comparison->More: “Folder Attribute Comparison”. Because it is off by default, this fixes the bogus “attr->” action shown for folders when the destination volume does not support some folder attributes (such as Samba network drives)
