Note, the purpose of the lock file is to let other FreeFileSync instances know that the directory is currently being modified by FFS. That way, you don't have multiple FFS instances trying to make changes to the same folder at the same time as that can mess up the sync (particularly if doing 2-way). A sync.ffs_lock file is created in the main folder which gets deleted immediately after sync is done.
