SyncToy & Read Only Files

Guest

i have a client that wants to use SyncToy to backup her Quickbooks data files
to her thumb drive. QB nows checks the read only attribute everytime you open
it. So is there a way to force SyncToy backup read only files.

You can't sync read only files in the current version (1.4) but it's slated
in the next release. Here's a quote from one of the developers...

"Support for read-only files, encrypted files, folder pair rename and file
name based exclusion is definitely in the plans for the next release.

asks on this thread, we will need to evaluate further. Thanks for the
feedback.
