I face the same problem before. it solved by enabling remove shared checkpoints directory symbolic link on shutdown in settings and disable all sharing in Packages

Yep this is the solution, unfortunately it is an issue with File Explorer when dealing with symlink/junction directories. Alternative file transfer software may not have this issue. We should probably add another easy checkbox to disable the output sharing links on shutdown also.
