I have a simple script that does FTP Synchronization between one local server and a remote FTP site.

All non .exe files sync perfectly, but some random .exe files will not sync to the remote side.
The one .exe file that will not sync is only 21mb.

Local => Remote
Exact Copy is on.
The include mask is the default: *.*
The exclude mask is: *.db

Running Version 6.2.0.859

Maybe you have some error or warning messages from the log of the task?

No errors, just no transfer.

It seems your FTP server contains newer files than on you local folder. In this case the action don't upload files.

Actions of synchronization copy only newer or not existing files (doesn't exist in destination folder).

But I have .exe files on the local directory that are not in the remote directory. ...and nothing transfers to the remote.

I tested FTP synchronization with similar parameters. It works correctly.

I can use the FTP upload command to move the file, but Sync doesn't recognize a few of my .exe files.

Is there anyway to see the files being transferred in real time or have the files that got transferred appear in the log?

I recommend you to use SSF FTP actions. They support plain FTP too, just specify "None" as TLS option (in SSL FTP Log On).
SSL FTP Synchronization can output the activity into the log.

We FTP actions for compliance with old tasks, because SSL FTP actions have different engine and a little bit another parameters.

Could you send the exact names of missed EXE files?
