I have set, via Tools>options, my logs to be Plain text-
Can I do anything about this?
This is confirmed in the GlobalSettings.xml file -
Yet I still get some jobs giving me HTML logs -
I have uninstalled and reinstalled (plus installed updates), I have been into Tools>options and changed it back and forth between HTML and Plain text several times.I get HTML AND Text logs

5. Use a different GlobalSettings.xml file
By default, FreeFileSync uses a single GlobalSettings.xml file containing options that apply to all synchronization tasks; for examples see Expert Settings. If you want FreeFileSync to use a different settings file instead, just add the path via command line:
FreeFileSync "D:\Different GlobalSettings.xml"
Windows Task Scheduler
...
Note
...
If you schedule FreeFileSync to run under a different user account, note that the configuration file GlobalSettings.xml will also be read from a different path, C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\FreeFileSync, or in the case of the SYSTEM account from C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\FreeFileSync.
You can force usage of a particular GlobalSettings.xml file by passing it as a Command Line parameter.

Ah - could be the Task Scheduler thing. I'll look into that, thanks.
