I know that many of the files I have in Dropbox will not be shared but most will be accessed from iPads from time to time. One thing I want to avoid is file duplication. This will hold Windows 11 and my Dropbox folder. Now that this feature is available, should I be using it? I’m building a new PC to replace another and I hope to have a 1TB M.2 stick as my C: drive. If I needed to replace a PC, I just signed into Dropbox on the new PC, synced the proper folders, and when all was synced, deactivated the old PC under devices.Įnter the era of Dropbox Backup. All PC’s shared the 2TB allotment of my Dropbox plan. Each PC could choose to sync specific files from other PC’s if needed (not by “sharing”). That way each PC could sync only the specific folders/files it wanted on its local hard drive yet have the comfort of knowing the files were backed up in the “cloud” on Dropbox. folders in the Windows OS but instead created the same folder structure in my Dropbox folder. What I did was ignore the normal Documents, Downloads, My Music, etc. This was way before Dropbox Backup was developed. I’ve been using Dropbox for years to not only sync selected files between three home PC’s but also as a form of “cloud backup”. I really couldn’t find a matching Board for my topic, so if it doesn’t fit this one, feel free to move it.
