Dry Run Preview — Test Cloud Sync Before Committing Changes in RcloneView
Before syncing terabytes of data or deleting files from a destination, use RcloneView's dry run mode to preview every planned change — without moving a single file.
One of the most costly mistakes in cloud sync workflows is discovering that a job deleted important files, overwrote newer versions, or pulled in thousands of files that were never meant to be included — after the fact. RcloneView's built-in dry run feature removes this risk entirely. By simulating a sync operation before execution, you can review exactly which files would be copied and which would be deleted, giving you full confidence in the job configuration before any real transfer begins. This is especially valuable when setting up a new job for the first time or after adjusting filter rules on an existing one.
