On my source I have a folder in the C: drive containing files and also, in that folder, a symbolic link to a folder on the D: drive on my source machine. On my target I have one folder in its C: drive containing all the files and sub-folders. All the data is really there, none is in a symbolically linked folder.
When I sync first time, OK. But when I next sync, ViceVersa tells me that all the files transferred last time from my target to the D: drive on my source machine (via the symbolic link in the C: drive) have been removed (although they haven't - they're still there).
So I thought, I'll exclude the folder on my target from the C:target<=>C:source synchronization and set up an additional synchronization from the affected sub-folder on C:target<=>D:source
Now, I can do this by running ViceVersa twice, once for the C:t<=>C:s and another time for the C:t(special folder)<=>D:s. But is there any way I can set up one synchronization to do everything?

Hi,

It should be possible to do in 1 profile.

Regarding :

"ViceVersa tells me that all the files transferred last time from my target to the D: drive on my source machine"

Which files are missing according to ViceVersa the source or target files?

thanks

The files missing to VV are those on the source machine which actually reside on Drive D: (i.e. those that were previously copied from the target to the symbolic link folder on Drive C: on the source machine). So, when VV is restarted it doesn't "see thru" the symbolic link on source C: into the source D: folder.
