In fact since I formatted the disks in ntfs, I have used them on only one PC (the one used to format the disks). On that PC, I am listed in the Administrators group. It is rare that I plug the USB disk on another PC. When it is the case, it is with a different account and different windows version. > Is the drive formatted with all permissions for Everyone? Yes, I removed all other permissions (system, administrators, user, creater...) and left only Everyone with full control (at the root). > Which OS are you using, btw?

I identified one file that was permanently failing to be saved had the following permissions on my hard drive: - Administraors: full control - Domain Users: Read&Execute, Read - MySelf: Modify, Read&Execute, Read, Write - SYSTEM: full control - Everyone: Read&Execute, Read - Users (computer\Users): Read&Execute, Read I added full control to my-self on the local hard drive and then rsync worked fine. On the USB disk the remaining ".file.exe.XXXX" has full control to everyone and only this which is fine. I then removed again the full control to my-self on the local hard drive and rsync failed again. Any clue?
