having trouble with rsync

having trouble with rsync

For whatever reason, I can not get rsync to work the way it's supposed to. Every time I run the command(tried it with many different options) it copies EVERY SINGLE FILE! This takes way too long and uses up too much bandwidth.

What I'm trying to do is back up my Music folder on my Windows machine to my linux machine (OpenSuse). The problem is, every time I run the command, it copies every single file again, even though none of them have been updated. I have tried it with the -a (archive) option and the -u (update) option.

Any suggestions on what to do?

Thanks yall!
