Why does my desktop app continuously sync even though all files are visible on another machine?

Why does my computer keep syncing continuously without ever stopping, even though the folders are already fully visible on another computer?

    Have you checked the app to see exactly what it's syncing?

    Hi DoanTheTrung, thanks for contacting us.

    In addition to what Rich asked, what OS are you currently running?

    Any other info or screenshots would be helpful!
