I followed:
https://freefilesync.org/manual.php?topic=schedule-batch-jobs

with the objective of running this at a specific time of the day.

I created a ffs_batch file from FFS from 2 jobs backing up 2 folders. I highlighted the two jobs and went "File>Save as batch job" and included this in the argument in the task.

When I manually ran this, ie right click and run, the second job runs in a loop. Every time I click on close on the "Completed Successfully" window, the program reruns after a minute. The task is shown as running and it seems no way to stop the task when it completed successfully.

Obviously I want a single synchronise event each day where the task runs and stops. Can anyone shed some light on why this doesn't happen?
