Problem description

When using the inSync Client, we may encounter a problem where inSyncUSyncer.exe constantly requests for the credentials. This problem can occur during manual or scheduled backups, or both.

Cause

  • The process which is responsible for backup of Outlook data is inSyncUSyncer.exe.
  • The process which is responsible for backup of Outlook data is inSyncUSyncer.exe. 

  • Below traceback points to the issue with concerned Outlook profiles which is causing this issue.

  • Now, if the inSync process experiences any issue while accessing the concerned outlook profile ( maybe it could be stale profile or has some other relevant issue ), the inSyncUSyncer.exe process keeps on asking for credentials.

Traceback

When this issue occurs, below logs are visible in inSyncSClient.log ( C:\programdata\Druva\inSync4\Users\<username>\Logs ) i.e.
