Cloud unable to detect file conflicts

4.5

The service overwrites changes without warning when two people edit at once.

Symptoms
  • Changes lost
  • No "Conflict" file created
  • Data corruption
Possible Causes
  • Sync app bug
  • Offline editing issues
  • Clock mismatch

Step-by-Step Fix

1

Update Sync App

Ensure you are using the latest version of the cloud client.

2

Check System Time

Ensure all devices have the correct time and time zone.

3

Use Online Editor

Real-time editors prevent conflicts better than file-level sync.

When to See a Technician

Conflicts occur when the server can't tell which change happened last. Accurate system clocks are vital.
