Syncovery Support Forum

Hi

I've started to have an issue where the profile crashes during the initial scan to determine what needs to be uploaded. It started on 15/6/2026 though I suspect that isn't specifically relevant. The job in question is a 2 way sync between Windows and OneDrive, which has been working for a couple of years without issue. The job always crashes at the same place (around 111000 items) the interface closes and when reopened the job is no longer running.

Disabling "Changes Based listing" resolves the issue, but the job takes a lot longer.

I've tried deleting the database to create a new one, but the issue remains

I've also tried creating a new profile with the same settings, which also has the same issue (it seems to reference the existing cache?).

I suspect it's when it's hitting a particular file or folder, but there doesn't appear to be any log information to identify that.

Any help appreciated!

Hello,
please let me know which Syncovery version you have. You may need an update.

Check in Task Manager if there is enough memory (RAM) during this phase.

Look in the Logs folder to see if there are any exception log files, such as Syncovery_Exceptions. If so, please send them to support@syncovery.com.

In addition, the job's own log file might be useful too, even if truncated.

Thanks for the reply.

The version is 10.18.4

There's around 10GB of RAM free during the backup, so that doesn't appear to be a problem. There are some SyncoveryService Hang reports in the logs folder, but they relate to a different profile which appears to be finishing successfully eventually. Nothing relating to this profile.

I can send you the full profile log if you like, however it just ends with:

Nothing further

Hello,
thanks! Unfortunately Syncovery 10 is no longer being updated, so I need to ask you to check if it works fine in Syncovery 11 or 12.
