normal files (doc and pdf) in normal directory - that works for similar files in same directory
(files are not corrupted - can be open in word and pdf programs)

Probably an issue related to OneDrive not accepting the ffs_tmp file extension. Work around would be to disable "fail-safe file copy" in menu -> tools -> options.

Hi! Would be possible to overcome this OneDrive limitation by using "ffstmp" extension? I think every name which has lots of "_", "-" and numbers on it causes trouble to OneDrive or FreeFileSync when the extension also has "_" on it.

I tried syncing "K-Lite_Codec_Pack_1360_Full.exe", then it triggers the error 1920 message. After I renamed it to "test.exe", the sync is fine. If I rename back to its original name, the error reappears.

It seems that merely moving the file which triggers the error outside OneDrive folders, waiting OneDrive to recognize the changes, and then moving back to the original place solves the problem.
