Resolve Sync Error due to missing or moved inSync Share folder
inSync Client automatically syncs the content from the inSync Share folder by default when it starts on the device. It reconciles the updates made to the shared files and folders in this process. The client displays a Sync error when either sync or reconciliation with the inSync Share folder fails. This occurs when the client fails to locate the inSync Share folder at its specified location. The folder may have got deleted accidentally or was moved without using inSync Client.

If the inSync Share folder is already present at the specified location, inSync automatically detects it and begins to sync and share the data.
