Source folder deletions don't carry through to Target

[2spring]

I am using VV Pro3 on evaluation. Win7 Home Premium operating system.

I selected:
'Backup' method as I just want a straight forward backup of 4 folders.
'Copy files even if timestamp changes after initial comparison.'
'Copy permissions.'
I didn't select 'Detect changes in Target'

I have a single .fsf profile file which contains 4 lines, so that files are copied to backup folders as follows:

From D:\Folder1(Source) to D: Folder1(Target)
From X:\Folder2(Source) to D: Folder2(Target)
From X:\Folder3(Source) to D: Folder3(Target)
From X:\Folder4(Source) to D: Folder4(Target)

(As can be seen above, one Target folder is on the same drive as its Source folder.)

When I delete a Source sub-folder which is full of files it seems that Vice Versa doesn't delete that sub-folder from the Target.
VV constantly runs and when I click to 'Show Comparison' there is a huge and overwhelming list of files shown in green on the Source (left panel) and in red on the Target (right panel).

If I try to delete the unwanted files from the Target which VV failed to delete then I have to delete each file individually - but there are so many files listed the task would take an unrealistically long time.

Can anyone help?

Hello,

From D:\Folder1(Source) to D: Folder1(Target)

Is this correct?

thanks

Yes, 'Folder1(Source)' and 'Folder1(Target)' are two entirely separate top level folders.

Both folders are on the same drive, drive D:

Also 2 other issues:

'Run profile at Startup' is selected - but it doesn't run at startup.

The icon (which changes from grey to yellow when VV is running) does not show in the System Tray like it used to.

Thanks you, it looks fine, can you please activate the profile log in profile settings -> execution and then send or post the log of a run? So we can find out why ViceVersa is not deleting files/folders from target. thanks

Hi, very sorry but before reading your reply I just deleted my VV Pro3 evaluation installation, complete with VV Pro2.

I am going to re-install VV Pro2 and try v3 again at a later date. Too much work on at the mo. If I get any further issues I'll post again.

No problem, thank you, if you find the same issue again when using VV PRO 3 please let us know, thanks!
