Stop synchronizing a file sharing workspace

You can stop synchronizing a file sharing workspace while you're using it, or from the Launchbar.

Stopping synchronization while you're using a file sharing workspace

Click Stop synchronizing <file sharing workspace name> in the Synchronization Tasks pane.

Note: This action affects only the computer on which you select the option. If you want to stop synchronization for the workspace on all computers on which you have your account, you must select a workspace deletion option as described below.

Stopping synchronization from the Launchbar

  1. Select the file sharing workspace you want to stop synchronizing.

  2. Click Edit - Delete, and select a workspace deletion option.

    Note:
    You must be a manager in the workspace to delete it for all workspace members. Typically, only the workspace creator is a manager.

    • From This Computer: The selected workspace is deleted from your account on this computer. However, if you've added your Groove account to one or more other computers, the workspace will continue to be listed under the category "Not On This Computer."

      If desired, you could restore the deleted by fetching from another computer.

    • From All My Computers: The selected workspace is deleted from all computers on which you have your account. Your membership in the workspace is terminated unless another member re-invites you. This option displays only if you have your account on more than one computer.

    • For All Members: The selected workspace is deleted for all workspace members' computers. This option is available only to workspace managers. Use this option only if you are certain that all members are no longer using the workspace and any essential information has been archived.
