Hi I have to synchronize a large amount of backup files with a ffs batch, I have to run it over several nights but only the night. I launch it with Windows task scheduler and I stop the task after 8 hours but if the FreeFileSync.exe is correctly killed, the FreeFileSync_x64 stays active and I don't want it (during business day). How can I do to solve this problem ? Thanks

Instead, you may also consider to run the FFS job in a single flow with background priority, by setting RunWithBackgroundPriority to true.
See the FFS expert settings.
