Running version 11.25 on Windows 10. I've setup a Windows Scheduled Task to mirror one data set to another server. Copying newly creating files from "Left" to "Right" works fine.
I then tested deleting a file from the "Left" side, and the task then runs indefinitely and doesn't complete. A "sync.ffs_lock" file is created in both locations. If I reverse the process, eg, delete a file on the "Right", the same thing happens. The Scheduled Task runs indefinitely and the lock file remains.
For the Scheduled Task to operate again, I need to stop it, and remove the lock files.
No log file is created under "C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\FreeFileSync\Logs" when this happens.
My batch file looks as follows:
