You might fix that by clearing your recycle bin


Thank you for this ! I re-did my sync settings and this issue went away, but I did also empty the recycling bin which was pretty full.

Unfortunately now I'm just consistently getting that first error again! What a turn of events. I even check ...

I also had this issue once with RTS. I clicked 'retry' on the RTS icon and it never came back. It makes no sense either, because that file/location definitely isn't in any of my sync configurations


Thanks for the information! I let it run for these past two days, and it hasn't thrown that ...

Hello all!

I am having an issue with FFS, and after searching this help forum and failing to find my issue, I've decided to make my own thread.

I keep receiving an error regarding the GlobalSettings.xml. Whenever this error pops up, my synchronization stops. I can't figure out why this error ...

It does indeed look that way, but ...\PoT\Server2\PathOfTitans\Saved\DatabaseCache is set up to sync with ...\PoT\Server3\PathOfTitans\Saved\DatabaseCache entirely, which I thought would just sync the folders and files within the ...

Folder pair: C:\Nycta\Servers ...
