None of that seemed to work. I am using basic and my version is updated to 48.4.58. If I restart my computer, will I lose the files that have not uploaded yet?
Hello, phoenixfury7...

Does syncing seem stuck or is it just really slow?

Hi CARINE EL MASRI, sorry to jump in here!
Could you also clarify the app's version that you're using? Also, how long is the app stuck syncing the same amount of files?
