FAQ - sciebo
Folders that are being shared by other people automatically move to the top folder level. This problem is known and Sciebo support is working on a solution.
After contacting the operator in Muenster, they do not believe that the problem will be fixed by the manufacturer in the near future.

Virtual files are created using VFS (Virtual File System) and are used primarily under Windows.
Instead of dowloading the actual files, sciebo only downloads their respective metadata (file name, timestamp, etc.) to save disk space. This is particularly advantageous if you have little disk space available.
However, if you want to download your data completely locally (e.g. to create a backup of the cloud storage data) or select which data/folders to synchronize, you must deactivate the feature.
Please make sure you have enough storage space on your end device.
To deactivate the feature, please follow these steps:
- Open your sciebo/ownCloud client.
- In the menu of the respective account, click on the three dots.
- Select "Deaktiviere Unterstützung für virtuelle Dateien"/"Deactivate support for virtual files".
