The synchronization of a top-level folder can be stopped in the LRZ Sync+Share client. Right clicking on a folder opens a context menu with the option "Stop Sync" (see step 1). Then confirm with the "Stop Sync" button. Here you can select whether the files located in the "LRZ Sync+Share directory" on the computer should be deleted or not (see step 2). Afterwards the folder should be grayed out in the client program.


If you want to uninstall the LRZ Sync+Share client, it is recommended to stop the synchronization for all folders and then continue with the uninstallation.
