|
|
Hi :)
At the end of doing my backup I don't understand what the "plus" signs mean.
I have some red circle symbols, I understand that those files had some error, but I don't understand the ones with a "plus" symbol.
I hope please help me :cry: :) |

Hi, red circle means file "only on this side". + means newer file. - older file. A green check mark means same file on both sides. _________________ --

Thank you very much for your prompt response!
But what does "means newer file" mean?
On the other side I see they have a minus sign
Does that mean those files weren't added to the backup either? |

Newer means that the file has a newer/more recent timestamp.... what type of drive is the target you are backing up to? thanks _________________ --

Thank you very much. I already saw that the timestamp was very strange and having a "plus" symbol tells me that it copied the file but it had to modify the timestamp, right? |

Yes, if a file gets a + after having been copied, it sounds like it has the wrong timestamp, usually it's the time when the file was copied. Is it a folder on Webdav or sharepoint? thanks _________________ --
