Hi, I have Drive File Stream installed to sync my Google Drive to my laptop.
Drive File Stream makes a drive "G" available that acts just like a regular Windows drive (or seems to).

I set up a sync job to synchronise this content to a NAS box. Everything syncs just fine with the exception of Google Cloud files (i.e. "Google Docs"). The error when trying to sync a Google Docs file (just a regular file with the ending "gdoc") is "Error 1 - incorrect function (CopyFileEx)".

Apparently, FreeFileSync tries to copy a file XYZ.gdoc to the NAS as "XYZ(tilde)2bd8.ffs_tmp". I don't know what this means.

Anyone have a guess? Thank you!
