Re: Feature Suggestion: Encrypted Backup Viewer


Hello,
the new Syncovery 11.6.6 has a new feature that can help in some cases and also enables you to get a better feeling about how the filename encryption works.

Via the Tools submenu in the Sync Preview, you can now choose to show encoded and encrypted filenames in addition to the clear text ...

Profile Group Schedule

Is there a way to add a schedule for a profile group, and then have Syncovery run through each job within the group one at a time (ideally halting the whole group if one of the jobs fails)?
I have a growing list of jobs, and scheduling them to all run independently of one another is proving to be ...

Re: Proton Drive support

I'd like to also show my support for this. With the release of the public SDK coming soon, I'm really hoping for Syncovery to implement this functionality. I'd love to move to Proton Drive but being able to back it up is critical.

Re: Is there a way to specify an external compression tool?


Hello,
each uploaded file or block is verified with an MD5 checksums that Syncovery calculates locally, and Azure calculates on their side. If there is an MD5 mismatch, Syncovery will raise an exception and re-upload the file until it matches, or if the number of retries is exceeded, it will error ...

Recovery records are not necessary or useful when uploading to Azure. Corruption does not happen on Azure, or if it does, files are gone completely and not partially.

There could be hacks to invoke WinRAR but I do not believe it will be useful. You could possibly use two Syncovery jobs, one to ...

Re: Is there a way to specify an external compression tool?

Alternatively, does the .sz format support any kind of parity system or recovery records?

Is there a way to specify an external compression tool?

Hi there,

I see that there's an external file copying tool option, but is there way to specify an external tool for the compression/encryption portion, and use Syncovery to copy the resulting file to the destination (Azure in this case)? I'd like to invoke WinRAR to take advantage of recovery ...
