If you were to compare a second time with FFS, it would be almost immediate. My guess it Goodsync is keeping some kind of database between sessions, like a table of contents.

That file does not lock the drive or it's contents from anything other than another FFS job. There is another issue going on

I/O errors typically are related to an issue with accessing a location. Whether that is a bunk drive, or drive going out, or something else is impossible to know without peaking ar…

I would exclude the app files and system files from being synced.

Assuming that you actually managed to download the setup zip file. You have to open the zip file and extract out the Setup.exe and the Setup.key to the same folder. Then launch the…

Is this reproducible? Maybe these are remnants from other synchronizations? You can check this via the main dialog before starting the sync.

You can use the portable version which doesn't need installation.

Could you post your command line to run the ffs batch? I am having trouble getting it to trigger (Mint 19.2)

Two options: 1. if possible fix your FTP server to support RNFR/RNTO 2. disable fail-safe file copy (wouldn't recommend, but what can you do)

I believe it is comparing the contents of a license file to a database, and even though it is free, it is seeing the license tied to a different hardware ID. You may just have to f…
