After the latest FFS Update,
ffs run under Win8.1 in 32bit Mode.

Taskmanager:
FreeFileSync.exe
FreeFileSync_Win32.exe

This was not before.

FFs is starting within a batch with:
%PROGRAMFILES%\FreeFileSync\FreefileSync.exe

Yes, this is because the 64-bit version requires Windows 10 or later now:

This shouldn't be too much of a limitation though, except for 4 GB memory limit, and Volume Shadow Copy not working under WOW64.

Thank you.
"Volume Shadow Copy" this is my problem with that.
So ffs 14.5 is the latest version that support Win7/8/8.1 with 64 bit.
Maybe, this should be mentioned in the download-archive.
