| Syncing | Files are being sent or received, with the number done. | Wait. |
| Paused | You paused sync. | Resume it: see [Pause and resume sync](https://drime.cloud/support/desktop/pause-and-resume-sync). |

| Waiting for your answer | Sync stopped until you answer a question, such as many deletions. | Open the Drime window and answer. See "Delete files from your Drime drive?" warning. |
| Analyzing files | Drime is checking your files, for example after starting. | Wait. |
