Notifications are only available on Windows 8 or newer. |
With these settings you can be notified when profiles start or finish.
•Display a notification when the profile starts: If enabled, when the profile starts a Windows Notification will be activated. If you click on the notification then the SyncBackPro window will be brought to the front.
•Display a notification when the profile finishes: If enabled, when the profile finishes a Windows Notification will be activated. If you click on the notification then the profiles log is displayed.
oOnly when errors occur: If enabled, when the profile finishes a Windows Notification will be activated, but only if the profile failed.
•Display a notification when a profile prompts: If enabled (the default), when a profile prompts a Windows Notification will be activated. If you click on the notification then the SyncBackPro window will be brought to the front. A prompt includes displaying the Differences and File Collision windows.
•Disable profile prompt notifications for ALL profiles: If enabled then profile prompts are never shown. This is a quick way to switch off the notifications if you find them distracting.
Why did a notification not appear?
SyncBackPro uses standard Windows notifications. This means Windows itself, and not SyncBackPro, controls if and when a notification appears on the screen. If a notification you were expecting did not appear, e.g. when a profile finished or failed, then it is usually because Windows chose not to display it:
•If Do Not Disturb (Windows 11) or Focus Assist (Windows 10) is switched on, then Windows will not show the notification popup. The notification is not lost: it is delivered silently to the Windows Notification Center, where you can read it later.
•By default, Windows turns on Do Not Disturb automatically while you are playing a game or using an application in full-screen mode, e.g. watching a video. During that time notifications will not interrupt you, and instead they go silently to the Notification Center. You can change these automatic rules in Windows Settings > System > Notifications.
•To see notifications you may have missed, open the Notification Center. On Windows 11, click the date and time in the taskbar, or press Win+N. On Windows 10 it is called the Action Center, and is opened by pressing Win+A.
•Windows also lets you disable notifications for each application. If SyncBackPro notifications never appear at all, not even in the Notification Center, then check in Windows Settings > System > Notifications that notifications are enabled, both in general and for SyncBackPro.
