I can not sync folders between local drive and USB (Windows) drive.

Hmm, no such problem here - I just tested with an USB-harddisk, an USB SD-card and an USB-stick.

This error will also be shown when TC cannot read the parent directory (it calls FindFirstFile on the directory name to check whether it exists and is accessible or not). My guess is that the USB drive was formatted with NTFS on a different PC, and the directory has permissions which don't allow access to the current user.

Yes - right - Admin rights are requested from Windows to access the ext. USB drive folders (which is also a Windows installation computer drive).
Anyway - access with Admin rights works - folder sync does not work.
Is there a way to get it working?

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.
