my freefilesync program terminated prematurely. now all the folders associated with the current configuration are locked. i'm using the newest version 14.12 64 bit donation edition, and windows 11 with all updates. the lock file cannot be deleted. and so the locked folders are not accessible. i've tried all the suggestions on your forum and on google searches. nothing works.
do you have any suggestions?
windows 11 new update - ffs lock cannot be deleted anymore

this support issue can be closed. nothing i did fixed the problem. but the monthly windows update came yesterday. after it ran everything worked fine again. i even checked to make sure the files were still locked just before i ran the update.
