Because Sync2 works without a central server and the same data may be changed on different PCs prior to synchronization, it is very likely that you may have conflictsConflicts: It may happen that the same synchronized Outlook item is modified on different PCs. In this case, a conflict between its versions occurs during the synchronization process, therefore these versions are called conflicting items. Duplicates and conflicts are identified during the synchronization process when two identical items are discovered - one of them in your Outlook, another in the synchronized folder. .
During the first synchronization on the second PC, or as a result of synchronization with your PDA, Palm or similar devices, some data may duplicateDuplicates: A situation may occur during the first folder synchronization or offline mode when identical Microsoft Outlook items exist on different PCs. Such items are called duplicates. Duplicates and conflicts are identified during the synchronization process when two identical items are discovered - one of them in your Outlook, another- in the synchronized folder..

If the program is not able to safely merge duplicates or resolve conflicts, the program will backup all problematic items into a special "Duplicate issues" folder and notify you. Then, you can deal with them manually.
The items that are detected as duplicate items, but cannot be merged, are placed into the "Conflicts" sub-folder.
If items are automatically merged during synchronization, the original items stored in your folder before merging will be backed up in the "Backup" sub-folder. If there are many merged items in the folder, the original folder backup will be created here, with the exact date and time of the backup, with all the items stored there before their merging.
When you've reviewed the conflicts and any created backups, you can delete the "Duplicate Issues" folder. If any further conflicts or backup instances occur, this folder will be created again.
