FreeFileSync - warning

This message appeared after I created a task for Google Drive.
With NTFS Scan I solve the problem temporarily, but when I turn on the computer it comes back.

You are trying to overwrite the GlobalSettings file that FFS is actively using and has a lock on. Screenshot your source and destinations. This has nothing to do with Google Drive, it's a configuration issue

Any solution that can help me?

.tmp in the task configuration might have a problem?

I did this deletion to send files to Google Drive after being fully compressed.

Hey,

Scheme I do is:
Encrypt with Peazip straight to a Veracrypt partition.
Already from Veracrypt I send to Google with P Frrefilesync.

PS. I have backup versions of the system, so I got the older global settings file and replaces. Well, so far, no message.

That's the devil! I can't get it off. It appears all over the screens.

New version, but still this same problem persisted.
Do you have any other alternative besides uninstalling the program?

Most likely AV software of the like is interferring with FFS. Perhaps a Process Monitor trace can reveal what's happening: https://freefilesync.org/faq.php#trace
