It sure does, cause you can't get an error about the recycle bin not being accessible if it isn't trying to be accessed. Check your settings

Change the options to delete permanently instead of to the recycle bin?

I get a warning that my external and/or NAS drives don't support the recycle bin. This is not fatal, only annoying. Is there any way to suppress this and finally get a clean sync?

No.
If you do have a recycle-bin active on your NAS (that FFS is unaware of), you can simply ignore the warning. The NAS will then (still) move the "to-be-deleted" file to the recycle bin upon "deletion".

If you do not have a recycle-bin active on your NAS, you should decide if it is OK that you can ...

Check 'Ignore Errors' when you 'save as' batch job. But what warning are you even getting? That it isn't supported? Just set deletions to permanent in the settings and save again if that is the case

No condescension from me, just trying keep the facts straight, which is that FFS is an amazing program developed/supported for free by an intelligent dev that takes pride in his work. As with most software, it only does exactly what it is told to do.

The NAS setting you show only illustrates that also non-admin NAS users (with access to the Hoofdmap-share) are able to see the Recycle-bin of Hoofdmap.
The link I provided earlier is a direct answer to your initial question.

The recycle bin is enabled in the root folder, such that admin (system default user) and user (me) have access. See Attachment.

... p=26551#p26551
For your "Hoofdmap" you seem to have enabled the NAS Recycle-bin (Prullenbak), in which you should be able to find any files deleted from "Hoofdmap".
Note: depending on how you configured your NAS Recycle-bin, only a (NAS) Admin account may have access to your NAS Recycle-bin.

... N) is enabled.
Still, you get the message: "Recycle Bin not supported in N: \ Pictures".
Screenshots are included.
Tried to fix it through settings in FreeFileSync, but it didn't work.
Can a solution be provided?

Mvg, RK.

FFS should have detected that recycle bin is not supported at this path. Fixed for the next version.
