Manual synchronization is only possible when the currently opened database is a local file (files on a network share are here considered to be local files) when you've opened a file from a server using an URL, the 'Synchronize' menu is disabled. If you've previously opened or synchronized with the target file, you can also simply point on 'Recent Files' (in the 'Synchronize' menu) and select the file. A synchronization can be started manually by navigating to 'File' → 'Synchronize' and clicking 'Synchronize with File' or 'Synchronize with URL' (depending on whether the file to be synchronized with is stored on a local drive / network share or on a server accessible via an URL).

There I can have a 'master' and 'slave' copy of my database file with the master being the copy kept on my cloud storage and the slave copy being kept locally. I am familiar with KeePass 2.38 on Windows. I am wondering if there is a more thorough explanation of how the 'Merge/Synchronise Databases' feature works.
