Hi.
I've been using FFS for some months in Windows Server 2012 64 bit.
I have a scheduled task running twice a day.
Everything worked just fine till 20-11-2021.
I don't remember if i did a FFS update or not, but the fact is that Windows Task Scheduler (WTS) shows a 0x2 code and the FFS batch isn't executed.
What happened?
If I run the .ffs_batch file manually everything works fine.
If it's started from WTS doesn't work, and show a 0x2 code.
I have two processes running:
"C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\FreeFileSync.exe" "E:\ffsfiles\myfile.ffs_batch"
"C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\Bin\FreeFileSync_x64.exe" "E:\ffsfiles\myfile.ffs_batch"
Can anyone help me, please?

What if you just recreate the tasks?
Are you running them as SYSTEM?

The WTS 0x2 code seems related to "Access denied" or "Cannot find the specified file".
• If it worked before: instead of an FFS update, a Windows update is probably a more likely cause, and may have changed some "security" or other settings.
Some hints:
• As what user have you defined WTS to run the FFS task?
• Is drive E: defined for that user, and if so, does it point to the expected/assumed location (drive assignment is user specific)?
• Does that user have (at least) read access to that location?
Perhaps also look here.

That's a possibility indeed...• If it worked before: instead of an FFS update, a Windows update is probably a more likely cause, and may have changed some "security" or other settings. Plerry, 14 Dec 2021, 16:32

Drive E: is a local disk• Is drive E: defined for that user, and if so, does it point to the expected/assumed location (drive assignment is user specific)?

And DOMAIN\Administrator as Full Control over it
I'll take a look...Perhaps also look here. Plerry, 14 Dec 2021, 16:32
