Unhandled exception: (OS Error: Cross-device link, errno = 18) about googlephotostakeouthelper

I have a similar issue with Windows. The program crashes during the Finding albums step without progress. I found in the output folder an empty year folder that was created.

I first tried having monthly folders and symlinks created for albums. Then I tried to neglect the albums. All without success.

Its around 140Gb with 30K files.

I believe that due to the method used to "Rename" files, that this is because moving from one file system namespace to another.

os.rename only works if source and destination are on the same file system. You should use shutil.move instead.

Regardless, the application SHOULD catch these type of errors and perform some type of handler.

• Proper Notification
• Failed moves items list

shutil.move
