KnpNxXiDzLkZBf4AQq32F68GJR Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 Greetings BTSync forum: I've been using BTSync for months now. It has worked flawlessly for me with directories containing huge amounts of data (several gig). I keep a laptop at home running BTSync, Teamviewer, Bittorrent, etc etc. I use another laptop on the road (at work) and sync files back and forth without any problem. However, I have ran across a situation that I believe may be a bug. A previous poster from this thread: http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/17448-btsync-no-start-syncing/ indicated they were having problems with "special characters" hanging the BTSync process. I am having trouble with BTSync hanging after I open a Word or Excel file. After the file (any file) is opened, a temporary file with ~$ added to the beginning of the filename is created as part of Microsoft Office's "AutoRecover" process. The file "~$filename.docx" will be created and synced, but when I close the file and the "~$filename.docx" is removed, the sync process hangs in BTSync. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Harold Feit Posted October 18, 2013 Report Posted October 18, 2013 The sync section of the forums has threads that address the office auto recover temporary file issues.
