SharePoint Migration Tool V2 help

I've started a migration using the SharePoint Migration Tool V2.   The migration runs for a while, then stops with an error stating "Cannot create package file due to file is locked. (ErrorCode: 0x204000A).  Does anyone know what would cause this, or where I could find support help for this migration tool?

      I checked the "Manage files which have no checked in version" setting, but it shows no files are currently checked out.  No users are currently using this document library, so I imagine this is accurate.

        As I was unable to get any further using the SPMT, I decided to go a different route.  Using One Drive for Business, I synced the library and then added the files.  During this procedure, I identified several files which would not sync due to the filename beginning with a leading space.  I wonder if this was causing the SharePoint Migration Tool to hang on these files.  In any case, the files have been migrated to SharePoint.
