<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">In
synchronization settings select and specify "Versioning"
for deletion handling. FreeFileSync will place files that have been
deleted or overwritten with newer versions into corresponding
time-stamped sub directories. This provides a space-optimized way to
save all older versions of files separately while the most recent
ones are available in main source and target directories.</FONT></P>
