Hi,

I'm syncing a Linux directory to a Windows directory. Up to now I haven't noticed that problem until I updated to the latest version 10.5, dated 11.10.2018.
On Linux I have a number of files like this; 1.jpg and 1.JPG, 2.jpg and 2.JPG. Up to now I haven noticed that only one of the files existed in the target directory. Now I'm getting the following error:
"g:\freesync\big3-back\files\23\1.9d0d.ffs_tmp" в
"g:\freesync\big3-back\\files\23\1.jpg".
Error code 183: Cannot create a file when that file already exists. [MoveFileEx]

Why is there a double backslash (\\) in the target file path?

Sorry, I've redacted the original paths. It's g:\freesync\big3-back\files\23\1.jpg".

It's version 10.6 already and still no fix?

Your target volume obviously doesn't support multiple filenames differing only in case (unlike the Linux side).
