# NSFileManagerResumeSyncBehavior.dropLocalChanges

Resumes synchronizing by overwriting any local changes with the remote version of the file.

## Declaration

```swift
case dropLocalChanges
```

## Discussion

Discussion If a conflict occurs, the file manager stores the local changes as an alternate version. Only use this behavior if you provide a separate means of resolving and merging conflicts.
