Hi,

I am using FFS 11.13 donation edition on Win7 laptop connected via WLAN or LAN to a Synolgy DS220+ NAS via mapped network drive. When syncing two-ways I get the same error with always the same about 1100 files:

03:09:37 Fehler Die Datei
"Z:\Backup-D\privat\Bilder\2002-09 Taufe\104-0426_IMG~8843.ffs_tmp" kann nicht nach
"Z:\Backup-D\privat\Bilder\2002-09 Taufe\104-0426_IMG.JPG" verschoben werden.
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND: Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden. [MoveFileEx]

This happens with DELETE = PERMANENT and DELETE = RecycleBin.

Those .ffs_tmp files can only be deleted on the NAS side, not in Win7 file manager. On Z: the used connection has read/write access on the NAS. It is always those same 1100 files that are left with this error even after successfully syncing another 10000 other files. I cannot see any differences with security rights on the local D: drive either.

I am running out of ideas now as I probably do not understand the real cause.

Thanks for some help,
Lino

This isn't a problem with deletion, it is a problem with "fail-safe file copy". FFS copies the file with a .ffs_tmp extension and then renames it to the real name once the copy is fully complete. What if you delete those 1,100 files from the destination and try syncing again?
