File/Folder syncronisation fails - Files in use

PPPPPP
edited September 2016 in AOMEI Products Support

Hello,

I'm trying to sync multiple folders from my computer with a externe USB device. Everything worked as it should during the first, second and third sync. Now I'm getting always a "Files in User" error while syncing. Even if i havn't start any programm and my system is completly fresh started.


System: Windows 10 x64 (anniversary update)

Program: Aomei Backupper v3.5


I'm not sure if it's maybe not working because the anniversary update or because i updated from v3.4 to v3.5. I recreated the sync task after the update (from aomei) and the first, second and third time every went well. Has someone any suggestions to fix this issue?


Greetings PPP

  • Please try to set another new syna task to see if you have the same problem, If yes, please tell us. And also we will test it.

  • Ok, i created a new task and deleted the old one. First sync and second sync went fine. We will see what will happend in a few days. This win10 update was to early for everyone...

  • Hello,

    after a few syncs the error is back again.

    Some more details:

        - It always occures while creating snapshots of the files

        - The files seems to be all located on the external USB device (which is the target)

        - Everytime different files are causing the error (pdfs, jpgs, docx, xls ...)

        - There are also files listed which have a "folder" icon or simple "file" icon but no name (more than 100)

        - Some of these folders have names i havn't used (chinese/japanese letters or letters which are normally not allowed for windows folders e.g ascii █ or utf ☐☐)

        - Some folder names / the folder structure is very "long" => these files seems to be listed more often in the files-in-use list; is there a limit of the length? (../../.../...)

        - I'm using german ÖÄÜ letters and blanks in may folder names

        - The first few syncs always went well

        - If I check the files with the program "Unlocker", it says that there are no active locks.

        - The USB device is using a exFat file system

  • OK, we get it. Thanks for your feedback. We will test it and fix it in the next new version.

  • Problem still exists 5/12/2017

  • I also have this problem when backing up files (~60,000) from an internal drive to an (external) USB-drive. Similar setup as user PPP, but backup faills on every run with the error that a large number of files/folders (>1,000) with strange names I've never used.

    I've also tryed to create a new backup plan but the problem persists.


    As I'm not able to get sure that all is backed up properly, I don't trust the backup.


    Hope for your support,

  • @nullpointer Please try to backup in Backupper WinPE to see if the error persists.

  • Same problem.  A small number of files in the "File Sync" folder on the USB show as in use.  They were created by Backupper and nothing else is accessing the USB until I attempted the next Sync.

  • Please use the latest version.

  • @PeterJ

    The latest version corrects the scrambled (chinese?) filesames, but the files are still marked as "in use". 


    I double ckecked those files, but they are not used by another program or system. I even tried to move thos files to another drive - which worked - but afterwards other files are marked as "in use".


  • @PeterJ

    I was able to track down the error to files/folders which are EFS encrypted. After decryption the backup of the same files worked as expected.
