Multiple versions of the same file appear with "Conflict" in the name.

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Resolve Conflicts Manually

Compare versions and keep the most recent one.

2

Sync System Clock

Ensure your computer time matches the internet time.

Avoid editing the same file on two devices at once.

When to See a Technician

Conflicts happen when the sync server can't determine which version is the "truth" due to timing issues.
