The settings dialog can be skipped by passing a RealtimeSync configuration file (*.ffs_real) - OR a FreeFileSync Batch file (*.ffs_batch) - as first command-line argument. This enables integration with your - operating system's auto start facility:

It can also be used in other scenarios, like sending an email whenever a certain directory is modified.

Example: -(Smart synchronization when USB -sticks are inserted into your PC - in combination with FreeFileSync)
+(Automatic synchronization when USB +stick is inserted)Assume -you have multiple(!) USB sticks that contain data you want to -automatically synchronize in two-way mode whenever you insert one of -the sticks into the PC. In order to be on the safe side, you decide -to setup FreeFileSync batch jobs (*.ffs_batch) -using <Automatic> -mode so that conflicts, for example -files modified on both sides, are detected avoiding data loss. Save -the relevant configuration on each USB stick's root directory to have -it called when the stick is mounted. Then configure RealtimeSync -analog to the following:

For -additional convenience it might be nice if the batch job remains -silent if synchronization completes successfully, otherwise shows +additional convenience it may be nice if the batch job remains silent +if synchronization completes successfully, otherwise shows FreeFileSync's GUI dialog when errors occurred. Therefore create two configurations, one silent-mode batch to be called by default and one *.ffs_gui to be called -- cgit
