Shadow.dll doesn't work in Windows 7 x64

[jxf11]

Hi, great app, I love it, thanks!

But ... On Windows 7 64-bit, the 2003 Shadow.dll file doesn't seem to allow
copying of locked files.

Can someone else with Win7 x64 confirm this is a FreeFileSync issue and not a
config issue on my end?

I just tested it on a brand new Seven 64-Bit system and can confirm..... it
doesn't work ;) (yet!)

For v3.2 I plan to create a native Windows Seven 64-Bit version. Thereby I'll
also build a native version of shadow.dll.

So let's try this trick again with v3.2

Regards, Zenju

Thank you Zenju, your efforts are greatly appreciated! Excellent app, I look
forward to trying 3.2's shadow copying.

Just tested 3.2 x64 on locked files and it copied just fine, thanks!!!

I am trying to install FFS to my new computer: Win 7, 64 bits and with
Microsoft Security Essentials (antivirus). I tried to install the exe file for
three consecutive times and no luck. This is a good application and I would
love to have it again.
Cheers,

The installer needs admin rights, maybe this is the problem. If nothing else
helps, try to add the .exe to some whitelist of MS Sec. Essentials. But I
would expect a more userfriendly button from MS asking "allow this
executable... " in first place.
