One of the files I am syncing between two PCs (one Win 10 32-bit and one Win 11) is a parameter file for the program that is run on the Win 10 machine. That file is read by the program running on the Win 10 machine but never written. The file ended up with no contents on either machine.
This occurred when I had someone testing the overall setup. It is possible that he was testing crashing one of the PCs…I am not sure.
Since this file is never written, I could just stop syncing it, but I worry this could happen to other files. What changes can I make to make things more robust …possibly against crashes. I do plan to make the syncing unidirectional for other files as appropriate, but I am still concerned as this system will soon ship to a customer.
Thanks
