Hello,
I'd like to launch FFS on a schedule on my Windows PC so it can run backups overnight to a NAS and GDrive. In the event that FFS is still going in the morning, I'd like to stop FFS. Naturally Windows task scheduler was my first thought. I don't always stay logged in, so configuring the scheduled task to run whether a user is logged in seemed the way to go. But it appears the only way to stop FFS launched in that manner is to stop the process via Windows Task Manager. Will FFS shut down cleanly if I stop FFS via Windows Task Manager?
TIA.
will FFS shutdown cleanly if stopped via windows task manager?

No
Ending processes it a forced stop
