FreeFileSync without malware?

Where can I get the actual FreeFileSync (newest stable version) without malware / unwanted programs?

6.2...

The last working portable version of FFS is 6.2 IIRC, the later versions have a bug that makes the program unusable when launched from another exe, more info here: http://sourceforge.net/p/freefilesync/discussion/open-discussion/thread/...

Yes, I set the working directory!

Thank you, Bennieboj,

Thank you, Bennieboj,

Yes, I had seen / experienced that bug. Even when you start a FFS after 6.2 (having used the portable "installation") with its own exe file the bug occurs on my system.

The newer versions, respectively the last one can automatically verify (by check sum or content) copied files, that is why I would like to use that version.

Thank you for the link, also

You'll need to wait for sourceforge

You'll need to wait for sourceforge, once they're back up (seems to be ok-ish from my view) you can try again.

You, Dirki, must stop conflating PA-FFS and RestOfWorld-FFS

I know JTH and others don't.

I'm suggesting you shouldn't add this to your (apparent, perhaps for humour) conceptual mistakes.
