Folder Watch doesnt start the Batch Tools?

Post by Berlin77 »

Hi there

I tried to use the folder watch function but it looks like the watch routine doesnt work.
I've put some pdf files in the folder but they are still not touched by the "folder watch batch rule"

First i tought its an hidden interval that starts maybe all 5 minutes, but after over 15min. the files are also untouched.

When i open the PDF-Tools Mainwindow (GUI) i can start the routines manually with selection it and press start on the left corner.

I use windows 7 professional 64bit and newest pdf-tools version.
Wish someone could help me.

Thanks a lot.

Hello Berlin77,

Welcome to our forums!
Please take a look here for a more detailed explanation of Folder monitors:
https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt ... ors_t.html
And specifically this note:
Note that PDF-Tools must be running in order for folder monitors to operate.

So can you please confirm if you do have the PDF Tools running at your end while waiting those 5 and 15 minutes?

Kind regards,
Stefan
