Mount point / folder disappears ..!

is rclone.exe running, check task manager.

and need to use a rclone log so we can what is going on.

I dont see Rclone.exe but there are many instances of "Rsync for cloud storage" tunning in task manager..

that means you have another intance of rclone.exe running, using mountpoint - C:\rcmounts\C101\mount
can only have one instance per mountpoint.

you can adjust the columns in task manager, to display the name of the app.

in any event, if you are running a single mount, there should only be a single instance of rclone.exe

to kill all running instances of rclone.exe

taskkill /F /IM rclone.exe
SUCCESS: The process "rclone.exe" with PID 25064 has been terminated.

and might be eaiser to test and debug, by not using nssm, just command line.

Actually i am running quite a few mounts.. sent you the log of one of the mounts.. but all mounts are ending up with same error..

i dont have a PID 25064 .. but there are many instances of Rclone.exe running

that is expected. the PID will be a random number.

yes, and that commanf failed, as you tried to overmount.

i understand that it needs to be done in command prompt?

is there a limit of how many mounts you can have?

that is correct

and notice my task manager snippet, which shows the exact command.

no limit, as long as you have sufficient system resources.

i did it.. but somehow all the rclone.exe tasks are still running with different PIDs

21Untitled

ok, that looks good.

should i just kill the nssm.exe instances as well, as i think its restarting the rclone.exe .. or am i wrong?

imho, you have too many moving parts, overlapping, creating too much confusion.
need to really simply all that, get to the root of the problem.

for testing,
--- disable/kill nssm services
--- kill all rclone.exe
--- use a single instance of rclone mount
--- use command line to run rclone
--- use a rclone log file.

get all that working, and then we can try running multiple mounts.

Alright.. will get back once i have carried out the steps..

After killing nssm.exe and rclone.exe .. i only started one mount i.e. C101 and its working.. i can access the files of my drive
