Icons that appear over the Desktop Sync icon in your system tray represent the overall status of your Alfresco folder. Here’s what each of these icons means.

Icon name Description
Green tick A green tick shows all your files are synced and accessible from your desktop.
Syncing A syncing icon, shown as a rotating icon (Windows) or clockwise circular arrows (Mac), indicates that files are in the process of being updated between Desktop Sync and Alfresco.
Red cross A red cross indicates there are conflicts that need to be resolved by the user. Something isn’t working properly and your file(s) are not being synced.
Pause A pause icon indicates that Desktop Sync is paused due to invalid server credentials or there’s nothing configured to sync.
Warning A warning icon indicates that either:
  • Desktop Sync failed to get a successful server health check. Contact your IT team if you see this warning when you're having problems working with your files.
  • An update is available for Desktop Sync (i.e. the installed version is older than the one provided by your IT team).
Offline An offline icon indicates that Desktop Sync isn’t connected to Alfresco and you are working offline. Check your Internet connection to resume syncing your files.
