hi all,

i'm new to ffs and hope somebody can help me. I want to use automatic file sync with RealTimeSync or windows scheduled task. For example check every 15 minutes if there are changes and then start sync. The problem is that the source directory is in use nearly all the time. So it happens that ffs wants to sync while there are some files beeing copied into this directory. When his happens ffs stops or doesn't even start syncing, although there are other files in the directory, and error appears saying "cannot read file (path...)" "error code 32: file is used by another progress (CopyFileEX)". Obviously because the copy progress is still running. So is there a way to skip such files which are beeing copied while syncing whithout stopping the whole sync process?

To start with, open FFS, click Tools from the menu up top, click options, checkmark "Copy locked files", click OK.
