Free File Sync steals focus from a full screen app when it is finished
syncing. In this case I am syncing music or video files for use in XBMC. If I
am watching a video (full screen) and Free File Sync finishes a sync job it
will steal focus from the video, interrupting it.

Is there a way to fix this behaviour?

Are you running a FFS batch job? In this case enabling "silent mode" should
prevent showing a popup at the end. If you're referring to this bug [404, Invalid URL: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2963276&group_id=234430&atid=1093080] and are using a recent version of the tool, then
we've got something new.

I am not running a batch job, just launching the program from the icon and
synchronizing from the GUI. I am running the latest version, but have noticed
this problem over at least the last two versions as well.

Fixed for v3.8! You may now watch videos undisturbed. ;)
