Handling Locked Files 1/2

When you’re synchronizing files, you may encounter the problem that the file can’t be synchronized because it’s locked.

Now, there a different levels of file locking. Easy2Sync for Files automatically tries to make the best out of the situation and tries to copy the file whenever possible while detecting and avoiding certain risks in the involved Windows functions. But sometimes that’s not enough. Sometimes files just can’t be copied (and there may be a good reason for that).

So the only thing left is to close the application that’s locking the file. If you know which one that is, you can enter it into the options:

Before running the task, Easy2Sync will check if the application is running and ask you to close it, so that the synchronization can take place. This is useful for example for database applications.
