GreatMarko Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 By "temp" files, I assume you mean .!Sync files? In which case, no, these cannot be "moved" - they are automatically created by Sync in their destination folders, and written to when data is received. Once the file is fully received, it is simply renamed to remove its .!Sync extension. If these .!Sync files were located somewhere else, it would lead to increased disk activity and slower completion times (as completed files would need to be "moved" instead of simply "renamed" at the end of every transfer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RomanZ Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 @zbigb69 It is possible if your run BTSync with /config parameter. In this case you can explicitly set the path to store to any designated location. Another option (to be precise - a hack) is to adjust environment variables. BTSync uses %appdata% variable to find location to store its files. As you might know, env vars are inherited from parent process, but actually every process keeps its own copy of env vars. So, if you make a batch file which sets the %appdata% env var to some different location and THEN launches BTSync, BTSync will have a different location for appdata - and will load / save data there. However, I did not test it in the lab - so please use with care, might have some side effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
