Synchronization

screenshot of this window

Use the Synchronization page to tell the Task which Windows folder to synchronize with the FTP directory and how.

Local Windows Folder: Synchronize this local folder with the FTP directory.

Proceed with caution if the folder is on the network and you intend to run this Task as a Windows Service.

Synchronize subfolders: Synchronize the folder's subfolders with their counterparts in the FTP directory. If this option is unselected, only the selected windows folder will be synchronized, not its sub-folders.

Sleep between synchronizations: After completing a synchronization, close the FTP connection and sleep this number of seconds before making another attempt.

Make sure to set this value high enough, e.g. 10 seconds.

Delete downloaded files from FTP server: After downloading them, delete the files from the FTP server.
