solution:

• Download the KeePass password vault locally and sync it with a remote file via sync.

• The act of synchronization is to merge two password databases with the same master key at the same time.
• KeePass will also automatically prompt if there is a data conflict.
• After synchronization is complete, the local password database and cloud password database should be consistent.
