My network backup started crapping out a couple of weeks ago (worked fine for years before that).
Backing up from Windows to a Synology DiskStation, I now get an error for each root folder being sync'd:
Warning Cannot set directory locks for the following folders:
Cannot write file "<destination root folder>\Delete.0.sync.ffs_lock".
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND: The system cannot find the file specified. [CreateFile]
The listed files were all created, and still exist. If I manually delete them, the next backup run will create them again, then fail to delete them. If I don't manually delete them, the next backup will create "Delete.1.sync.ffs_lock", then "Delete.2.sync.ffs_lock", and so on, then report the "Cannot write file" error for each of them.
Additionally, every changed file fails to sync with the error:
Cannot write file "<Full destination filename>-0c86.ffs_tmp".
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND: The system cannot find the file specified. [CreateFile]
Again, the ffs_tmp files listed were created, still exist, and I can manually delete them.
It seems like a permissions problem, but the users/permissions setup has not changed. Running as Administrator doesn't change anything.
Thanks for any suggestions on fixing this issue!

Reboot the NAS, check for drive health

Drive health all reported fine, but a reboot fixed it (can't believe I hadn't tried that). Thanks!

Anytime, it's usually just a network issue that "deadlocks" the connection so the access is "still there" but doesn't work
