Turning off synchronizing

NAS - TS-664. How do you completely disable synchronization? I accidentally deleted a folder and need to recover it, and I don’t want anything overwritten.

Synchronization with what program ?

The NAS

Please explain exactly what happened with what program/or another NAS(?),

“The NAS” is not really explaining much here.

Sorry. The dropdown tab says it is synchronizing. A while back there was a stop button on the dropdown tab but it disappeared after an update. I deleted a folder and I want to recover it and I need to completely shut down synchronizing so nothing is overwritten.

I give up, no idea what “dropdown box” this is or where you see it, you keep your secrets.

I not sure what you are asking because I want to turn off synchronizing period. I am trying to be helpful, but I just run Plex and have little knowledge of the workings of a NAS.

You synchronize from one device or program to another device or program

So far we only know your NAS model, what this syncs to or what is syncing to it: unknown.

The NAS is syncing itself?

Is synchronizing the same a def raging?

@dolbyman, I think the OP is using the Qsync application.

I figured, but that application would be installed somewhere (a client that syncs to the NAS) and the profile pic looks a bit ‘trolly’

I hear you. :wink:

@Snakebait, what device are you syncing from please? Windows PC, macOS, mobile device, etc… version and build numbers would be quite helpful.

Seriously!!! If you don’t want to help that’s fine.

What do I do? I deleted Qsync and synchronizing is still running. I have the NAS turned off to stop overwriting and when someone has a solution I will turn the NAS on a try it.

Can you please answer the questions I asked?

I will turn the NAS on and risk overwriting, so I can retrieve the info you want. Give me 10min.

I’m not asking about the NAS.

What is the device (and OS) you use to sync with the NAS?

Maybe it is resyncing drives after he turned it off - long press power button?

NO long press. Now that you mention it I had a power failure.
