RELEASE NOTES for AASync for Windows version 2.2.1

If you had AASync for Windows 2.1.3 or any other previous version,

you must uninstall it first!

because AASync 2.2 uses a different installer, so it cannot upgrade the previous version.

AASync 2.2 also uses a different file format for its documents, but no worries, it will automatically convert your sync definitions into the new format. Uninstalling the program will not delete your sync definitions.

About copying open files: If you are on Vista and you are not in the admin group, the AASync GUI app will run without elevated rights. That means if you run a sync from the GUI, copying open file (shadow copy) service will not be available to you, because it requires elevated (admin) privileges. However, if you schedule the sync then it will be executed by AASync_Cron_Service which does run with admin rights so it will properly execute your sync.

Power management features, such as putting the host to sleep/hibernate after the sync requires that the host computer is able to stay in standby or hibernate mode. That means these states must be able to be achieved by hand and must be working correctly. Many times BIOS/network or other powermanagement setting can prevent computers from gettting into or staying in suspend or hibernate mode.

Scheduled syncs will try to wake the host computer from standby or hibernate mode 20 seconds before the sync time to perform the sync!
