SOLVED...

Until a short time ago Free File Sync worked perfectly and has done for months ....

Now I have this error message stating that the folder is locked: I do not know what to do

Waiting while the folder is locked: "E:\ALTRO\sync.ffs_lock" | Stop the owner: XXX-YY

XXX-YY, is my user.... I checked my user permissions and everything looks fine ...

_____________________________________________________________________
the cause of the block of the program is determined by the presence in each folder of the file "sync.ffs_lock".

Deleting all files the problem has been solved.

It remains to understand why Free File Sync generated those files ...
