The About tab show the version information of the Java Desktop Client and the General Terms and Conditions of Storgrid.

Synchronisation

Synchronisation with the server happens automatically when you put a file in the local sync folder (and vice versa). As long as the account is not disabled, the server is reachable and there are no errors.

Browsing the locally synced folder

The data of an account, by default, is locally synced to the following path:

C:\users\<system username>\storgrid\<storgrid username>@<name>.<domain>.<tld>

For example:

C:\users\John Doe\storgrid\johndoe@training.storgrid.com

To go to this folder you need to open the Explorer. From here you can navigate to the folder by using the url bar.

In the url bar type in the default path or the path that you created and press enter.
