In your desktop application folder, files and folders have different icons. Some icons identify the type of file or folder (shared or team folder) while other icons indicate whether a file is being successfully synchronized with nBox.

The table below describes the icons that are displayed on certain types of files and folders in your desktop application folder. The shared and team folder icons display at all times. The file conflict and synchronization icons display only when the desktop application is running.

For more information of local and remote files, see Saving files locally or keeping them remote.
