I have a sync job to mirror folders from a NAS to a local drive. The folder on the NAS is intentionally read only (because it is a backup updated from a remote source). When comparing it gives this warning for the NAS folder, which is of course as expected.
Warning Cannot set directory locks for the following folders:
Cannot write file "/mnt/nas/*****/sync.ffs_lock".
EACCES: Permission denied [open]
Is there any way to tell FreeFileSync to not use lock files for this job? It's not a major problem if not but it would be nice not to have the job throw a warning every time.
Thank you.
Option to not set directory locks?
