Hello,

I'd like to set up a backup to run every hour. I created a backup in freefilesync and saved it as a batch job. In the sync settings, under comparison it has a check on ignore errors.

The batch runs in realtimesync and it syncs but then in the end it pops up with the error messages about files it couldn't back up. The next backup won't occur until I close that popup. Is there a way to avoid this?

As instructed per the FFS manual page on scheduling batch jobs, you should not just checkmark Ignore Errors, but also Auto-close, when saving your *.ffs_batch job.
