Zoho Docs Desktop program

Zoho Docs Desktop program

I have installed the desktop version of Zoho Docs in 3 computers. In two of them, all is fine. It synchronizes and life is good.  However, on the 3rd computer (Windows 10 Professional) with latest updates, Zoho Docs seems to install fine and I get no error messages or warnings. But the Zoho Docs icon on the bottom right corner never shows up.  I tried to see if maybe just th icon is missing but the application is running. No luck. The application does not run but like I mentioned: No error messages or any indication of what is actually happen. I uninstalled and re-installed several times. Same thing.  I just verified that Im using the latest version of the program and actually re-installed it.  No luck

Has anyone seen this behavior?  I really need the desktop synchronization to work on that particular computer more than the others. Any ideas welcome!

Thanks!

      • Introducing True Syncing of Read-only Folders - Zoho Docs Sync

        Some files are to be read, others to be edited, and some few to be scrutinized and reviewed. The permissions you grant while you share a file decide the level of activity a user can do on your file.  If you have a set of files to be shared with your team and you don't want the contents to be changed in any way, then you can share the files in a read-only folder.​ But what happens when read-only folders are synced to desktops?                                                 Read-only folders synced

          Zoho People now supports formula fields. This post illustrates it. Formula fields are fields whose value is calculated instead of being entered by the user. Using this, number, decimal and date manipulations can be done. The value of this field could be numeric or date depending on the output of the formula. In date manipulations, the result will be given in milliseconds, which you can format as per you need. The operators we support are +, - , *, /. Formula fields get recalculated automatically
