Save deleted/replaced files to Recycle Bin, last version only (checked by default)
If checked, GoodSync retains the previous version of any modified file in the "_gsdata_\_saved_" folder on the side of the job where the replacement occurs.
For a 1-way job, this will be the destination folder. For a 2-way job, this will be the source folder. Deleted files will also be placed into the "_gsdata_\_saved_" folder for recovery purposes.
If this option is unchecked, replaced/deleted files are removed permanently.
Only the most recent version of the file (the one just before the current version) is retained.
NOTE: "_gsdata_" is a hidden folder. You must check the "Show Hidden Files" option in Windows Explorer to view the contents of this folder. On Mac, use the GoodSync application menu item "Job" >> "Advanced" >> "Make gsdata visible."
Cleanup _saved_ folder after this many days (checked by default, 30 days)
If checked, all files placed in the "_gsdata_\_saved_" folder will be purged after the specified number of days.
If not checked, all files in the "_gsdata_\_saved_" folder will be kept indefinitely.
Save deleted/replaced files to History folder, multiple versions (unchecked by default)
If checked, GoodSync retains a version for every modification made to a file. These versions are saved to the "_gsdata_\_history_" folder on the side of the job where the replacement occurs.
A timestamp is added to the file name before its extension so multiple versions of the file can be saved.
The directory structure is preserved. Deleted files will also be placed into this folder for recovery purposes.
NOTE: This option cannot be used together with the "Save deleted/replaced files to Recycle Bin, last version only" option.
Cleanup _history_ folder after this many days (unchecked by default, 30 days)
If checked, all files placed in the "_gsdata_\_history_" folder will be purged after a specified number of days.
If unchecked, all files in the "_gsdata_\_history_" folder will be kept indefinitely.
