A community-sourced answer, with sources. Ask the AI a follow-up for your exact setup.

The knowledge base has no specific answer yet for a general “stopped syncing” case beyond these checks:

1. Check the sync status and logs.
2. Make sure the folder is selected for sync.
3. Check file filters.
4. Check if the file is restricted.
5. Check if antivirus software or firewalls are enabled.
6. Check the maximum number of files allowed.
7. Check if files are indexed correctly in Synology Drive.
8. Check if files sync after being moved out and back in.
9. Contact Technical Support.
