Trouble getting synctrayzor to work?

[zjDrummond]

Can't seem to get synctrayzor to start syncthing. What's this config error mean?

I had the same problem. I think we have a newer Syncthing config file than what's supported. In my case, I tried Syncthing without SyncTrayzor first, which may have created the newer config.

To fix it, I just had to remove the "C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Syncthing" folder and restart SyncTrayzor.

That worked for me though to be safe I copied the old "C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Syncthing" folder to c:\temp\Syncthing and copied it back once SyncTrayzor was OK.

This solution worked for me as well, and it transferred over the Syncthing configuration once SyncTrayzor did its initial setup. Would recommend adding this procedure to the FAQ for people who install SyncTrayzor first.
