I need a way to configure syncovery to upload files to a limit of 25000 files per folder and it needs to create every folder for me and then upload 25000 files to the folder then create a new one and the upload 25000 files to that folder.
Is there anyway that I can do that

Hello,
yes, it is possible. Is this a one-time task, or what happens in the future? Are additional files going to come in?

One way to do this is to tell Syncovery to create a new folder every time the job starts (on the "Folders" tab sheet in the profile).
Then tell it to copy only 25,000 files per run (under Files->More).
So it will essentially stop after 25,000 files and then the job needs to be started again for the next 25,000 files. Starting the job can be automated with the scheduler.
To ensure that Syncovery will skip previously copied files, they have to be marked off. On Windows, this is done using the Archive attribute. Under Masks & Filters -> General Filters, choose these two checkmarks:
- Copy Only Files with Archive Flag
- Clear Archive Flag
