quads17 Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Hey guys so here's the question:What I want to/need to do is be able to change computers on which an external drive is syncing. Computer A is syncing a hard drive with another location, but I want to move all my SyncApp settings to Computer B and continue syncing with that same location without having to reindex everything or redownload everything. Any suggestions or help?Thanks in advanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disappointed Cat Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Just copy the sync app directory. On linux it's wherever you put it or running the binary from. On windows it's usually at C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\BitTorrent Sync. The settings are in the sync.dat and settings.dat files,the indexing metacache is in the .db NoSQL files.

quads17 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Thanks Lightning,I will try it out and get back to you.Question:Should I actually install btsync on the other computer? Or just use the btsync.exe in the AppData folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disappointed Cat Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 It's supposed to work as a portable app too but you should if you want it to autostart and whatnot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
