The files are saved in the obfuscated sync cache and the local copy can't be accessed without using the volume mounted by Mountain Duck. Changes on cached files from a mounted volume without an activ network connection will be written to the sync cache and will be synchronized in the background when the server is reachable again.

```{note}
As long as the volume is mounted, files marked _Up to Date_ or _In Sync_ with a green checkmark remain accessible even if the network connection drops. Changes are synchronized in the background when the server is reachable again.
