If an update is available, Explorer notifies the end user that updates are available, however it will always be the end users responsibility to initiate the download.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 04 Aug 2017 13:40:44 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-explorer-questions/syncing-data/m-p/830874#M693 BrentPierce 2017-08-04T13:40:44Z
