Avoid FreeFileSync from being launch while it has previous popups openned

[sipriusPT]

For those familiered with FreeFileSync, know that there is another feature called RealTimeSync(RTS), who simply doesnt work at least in my MacOS, so I start making my own "RealTimeSync" but seems like I am not able to control FreeFileSync launchs when a popup is launched, after the sleep time it continues popuping up and doesnt wait for a click on this first popup. I have also tried to use my own warnings instead of FreeFileSync(FFS) popups but I cannot rely on that.

For default those batchs from FFS and RTS, I can only launch those directly with 'open' command, since both have extended attributes.

So do you have a way to show it one at a time?

This is the code that I am using right now, for testing:

import os
import sys
import subprocess
import time

####EDIT HERE####
ffs_batch_folder_path = '/Users/admin/Desktop/AOI-A/RTS_Config/'
ffs_batch_file = 'BatchRun_aoi2.ffs_batch'
nas_folder_path = 'Download'
#################

sleep_period = 60 #in seconds
first_launch_sleep_period = 30 #in seconds

def run_ffs_batch():
    #give some time to connect remote folder where it will sync
    time.sleep(first_launch_sleep_period)
    #starts periodic function
    while(1):
        print ('%s' %output)
        if os.path.exists('/Volumes/%s' %nas_folder_path):
            if os.path.exists('%s' %ffs_batch_folder_path):
                if len(output)>400:
                    print ('Connected from remote folder')
                    try:
                        #run batch file
                        subprocess.check_output(['open', "%s" %ffs_batch_file], cwd=ffs_batch_folder_path)
                    except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
                        print ('Unable to sync, check batch file name and location: \n%s' %e)
                else:
                    break
                    ap = """ display dialog "Remote folder not accessible, please contact your system administrator!" with title "Warning from Remote Folder!" with icon caution buttons {"OK"} """
                    subprocess.call("osascript -e '{}'".format(ap),shell=True)
                    print ('Remote folder not accessible!')
            else:
                ap = """ display dialog "Localhost folder not accessible, please contact your system administrator!" with title "Warning from Localhost Folder!" with icon caution buttons {"OK"} """
                subprocess.call("osascript -e '{}'".format(ap),shell=True)
                print ('Localhost folder not accessible!')
        else:
            ap = """ display dialog "Remote folder not mounted, please contact your system administrator!" with title "Warning from Remote Folder!" with icon caution buttons {"OK"} """
            subprocess.call("osascript -e '{}'".format(ap),shell=True)
            print ('Remote folder not mounted!')
        #sync period of time
        time.sleep(sleep_period)
 
if __name__=="__main__":
    run_ffs_batch()

I avoid those popups by removing those through FreeFileSync GUI, and also I made a search to see if FreeFileSync was still being used through PID to avoid this app to be openned again,while the other one was running, and creating a stack of FreeFileSync processes.
