I am getting this message on several files. The full message is below (I
have changed the filename for display here):

Cannot copy file
"C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\Music\xxxx\yyyy\zzzz.mp3" to
"g:\backup\xxxx\Documents\Music\xxxx\yyyy\zzzz.mp3".

Error Code 5: Access is denied. (CopyFileEx)

I have checked my permissions - I have admin rights.

Under Global settings, I have unchecked: fail safe, copy locked, and ntfs
permissions.

I am not sure how to fix this. Any ideas?

Same problem - turned out it was a conflict with my antivirus software (Panda Cloud Antivirus). I uninstalled Panda and FreeFileSync worked just fine again.

Hi,

I'm trying to use FFS to copy Windows Roamin Profile folder. The FFS is running in Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and the FFS still showing the same error message.

1. Global settings have been unchecked (fail safe, copy locked and NTFS permissions).
2. Antivirus was disabled.
3. Add MvsSvr with full control over the Roaming Profile folder.

Does anyone has this working?
