If you require a sync program that can copy files that are in use or locked, FreeFileSync has you covered there too! The preview is very easy to understand, and file collisions and deletions are more readily recognizable than many other sync programs. Unfortunately it only has very basic filters and its help file is a little sparse. Those few flaws aside, I found it to be well designed and easy to use.
