That is how replication works... New files replicate, and deletions also replicate. Not sure what you want... If you just want a clone without deleting you will need to use something to copy files on a schedule

Hello,<br />
I have set up DFSR between windows 2008 and windows 2019, the 2008 server is in production and the file share that I want to replicate is critical.<br />
<br />
I have set up two test folders. &nbsp;If I put a file in the 2008 server folder it replicates fine. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
If I delete the files on 2019 it deletes them in 2008. &nbsp;That's the problem, I can't take the chance that those files will be deleted, also I dont want to change the permissions on the folder level because I don't know how it will effect the produstion environment.

Hello,
I have set up DFSR between windows 2008 and windows 2019, the 2008 server is in production and the file share that I want to replicate is critical.

I have set up two test folders.  If I put a file in the 2008 server folder it replicates fine.  

If I delete the files on 2019 it deletes them in 2008.  That's the problem, I can't take the chance that those files will be deleted, also I dont want to change the permissions on the folder level because I don't know how it will effect the produstion environment.
