VVEngine to start synchronization only if Thunderbird closed

Hi users of VVEngine,

When I am looking to my email, Thunderbird become to a crawl. I know that this is when VVEngine start the synchronization because some files change. I know that we can write an exception so VVEngine will start this profile only when Thunderbird is close.

Can someone help me with the code because I simply cannot figure it out?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi, are you running the VVEngine profile on file change detection?
Are you using Volume Shadow Copies?
thank you

Hi,

I am using it on file change detection since I have only some profiles that are linked to some specific folders that change..

Hi, you can set a condition in the scheduling settings of your profile:

Start only if this condition is true: "thunderbird.exe" isnotoneof running_processes

I think it's a good idea to copy the thunderbird data in a separate profile from the rest if possible.
