FileSyncProvider Exception sourceDirectory is write protected for 'filesync.metadata'

Question

in my program i have an exception, because i want to synchronize a local directory with a write protected networkDirectory.

Message:

Microsoft.Synchronization.MetadataStorage.MetadataStorageEngineException: Fehler bei einem Speichermodulvorgang. Fehlercode: 25039 (HRESULT = 0x80004005, Quellen-IID = {0C733A7A-2A1C-11CE-ADE5-00AA0044773D}, Parameter=(0, 0, 0, H:\filesync.metadata, , , )).

I would like to avoid writing the 'filesync.metadata' to the sourceDirectory, or maybe change the path for writing the metaFile

Can someone help me?

Greetings from Andre

the constructor for the file sync provider allows you to specify an alternate location for the metadata file.
