Sync progress display

When the sync targets set for 1:1 folder sync in Drive Explorer are syncing, you can check the current progress of the sync in the tray window.

The sync list may only display some items, but by checking the number of items currently being processed in the sync status area of the tray window, you can more easily understand the overall progress of the sync.

How to check sync progress

  1. Click  on the Windows taskbar.
    • When the tray window is displayed, check the sync status display area of the tray window.
    • If syncing is in progress, the sync status display area will show the number of items currently being processed in the format 'N items in progress'.
  2. To stop the sync, click 'Stop'.

 

Display by sync status

Status Description
Preparing to sync Checking sync targets and therefore not yet able to display the number of items being processed. Even in this state, 'Stop' can be used.
Sync in progress files Actual sync is in progress. The number of items currently syncing or pending is displayed as 'N items in progress'.
Sync stopped The user has stopped the sync. In this state, the number of items being processed is not displayed.
Up to date. All syncs are complete. The number of items being processed is not displayed. If any items failed to sync, they may be displayed separately.

 

How the number of items being synced is counted

The number displayed as 'N items in progress' is the total number of items currently syncing and items waiting to sync.

Items that have completed synchronization are excluded from the count of items being processed, regardless of whether they synced successfully or failed. For example, if 1 out of a total of 5 items has been synced, 2 are syncing, and 2 are pending, the tray window will display '4 items in progress'.

If new files are added or existing files are modified during synchronization, increasing the number of items to be synced, those items may also be included in the count of items being processed.

In addition, the number of items being processed is updated once every second.
