  There is an option in the Folderpair for instant sync, I believe that is what you’re looking for. I’ve never used it, as I also just do scheduled syncs

    Instant sync only works for local folders it can monitor. Since it doesnt have a client on the other end, there’s no way to make this happen (it would have to monitor the destination).

    Its a great apo, I’ve used it for 10+ years, paid for it 2 or 3 times because it’s worth it.

      Ah, that makes sense. A bit aggressive for my needs. Thanks for the info!

  I should add that I do use it for backups, it’s a great program, but I’ve only ever used it for one-way scheduled syncs.
