I have several local PDFs and HTML files which I have entered into Mendeley Desktop, some new today and some months old but which I moved and manually relinked today by clicking on the Add File button in the Details pane in each case, or in some cases imported the source files again and merged with existing records.
If I initiate sync on the Desktop app, I lose the link to the local files. I again relink them manually, but each time the links disappear when I sync again!
I may be logged in to Mendeley web, or not, but I am not undertaking any activity there. I read the Support article about how syncing works, and it is supposed to use the latest database, which would be the Desktop one.
