Sync is only considering timestamp, not file size or CRC

Even though the files in my target directory have later modification dates than the files in the source directory, I want to force the source directory to copy into the target directory.

But no matter what I try, it always ignores the files and says nothing needs to be copied.

The relevant profile settings are:
Comparison Method: I've tried everything
Execution Method: Replication (Update Target)

The default settings are set for everything else.

Is this a bug or am I not understanding something?

Running Vice Versa Pro 2.5 Build 2502.

Use the option: Replace newer target files with older source files (backup method). It's in profile settings -> advanced settings. thanks

Hi, thanks but this option is disabled when I'm using Replication (Update). I assume it is only available if you use the Backup method? The downside is I won't be able to preserve deleted files in the target.

You could copy the older files once manually from within the ViceVersa comparison window, or is it a situation that could happen often ?
