Hello,

When I try to compare the files from a DVD drive to a local folder, the program gives the error:

Cannot set directory locks for the following folders:
Cannot write file "G:\sync.ffs_lock".
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED: Access is denied. [CreateFile]

I would like to report this bug so that the tool's unit comparison feature can be used in cases where this temporary file cannot be written.

Thanks!

Either disable directory locking or click 'ignore' when that error comes up

In the first case, pressing ignore didn't show me the result.
Now, on a different DVD, it did work for me.
I haven't been able to find the directory looking option. Where is it?

Thank you very much for the response.
