The first possibility is that the snapshot is successfully completed, and it will be displayed in blue. The second option is encountering a 3XX redirection while attempting to access the destination page, which will be indicated in green. The third scenario involves a 400 or 4XX webpage error, highlighted in orange. Lastly, an error originating from the server hosting the destination page, whether it's a 500 or 5XX error, will be marked in red. The snapshot will be captured, and the information will be archived.
Please look at the attached files.

However, the 'failed to fetch' error occurs when the Wayback Machine attempts to retrieve a snapshot but encounters an internal issue, such as missing files, difficulty locating the file, database problems, among other factors involved in reconstructing the snapshot. Something has gone wrong, resulting in the 'failed to fetch' error.
