Issue updating from SyncTrayzor 1.x to 2.x

[async_20 (Seb)]

I’m on Windows 11 and I’ve been running SyncTrayzor for a while. I noticed an issue with it syncing to my phone. After opening the app, it prompted me to upgrade from 1.x to 2.x.

After upgrading, it won’t start. I keep getting this error in the console:

syncthing.exe: error: unknown flag -n, did you mean one of “-h”, “-C”, “-D”, “-H”?

Any help to get this back up, so I can get my sync working again would be great.

Thanks.

Reviving SyncTrayzor

So, it happened. As some folks have already noticed (Towards Syncthing 2.0 - #50 by DrSchnagels), SyncTrayzor won’t work with Syncthing 2.0. This was bound to happen at some point, given that there’s been basically no development on SyncTrayzor for 4 years now. The original project is also archived now, so there’s definitely no activity there going forward. I’ve mentioned in the past (here and here) that I would consider forking SyncTrayzor at some point, if it became absolutetly necessary. Pre…

Okie dokie. Thanks for the quick reply and sorry to make you rehash.

With that in mind, is there a way to use Syncthing 2.0 and keep the settings from SyncTrayzor intact, or will this be a fresh install/set-up?

The SyncTrayzor v2 installer detects and upgrades SyncTrayzor v1 installs, keeping all configuration intact (unless the user requests otherwise).

Portable versions need to be manually upgraded, but you can copy over the data folder from the old install to preserve all configuration.
