Hi Megan, its during the installation process and its after you choose the selective sync folders.

    It's expected during the installation process, SVDS.

     

    One more question: does this happen when you access your selective sync content and try to sync some folders back to the device, or remove them from the device?

    Its expected but it makes no sense; I try to copy 7MB to my HD having storage for 400GB and the app says I don't have enough space that's confusing.

    And its during installation so it is always for adding the folder/files back to the HD.
