tjl Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Is it possible to change a standard folder into an advanced one without loosing all already established peers? tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatMarko Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 No, it's not possible to "convert" a standard folder into an advanced folder, short of removing it and then re-adding it as an Advanced folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjl Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 thanks. How can the new Advanced folder get the Read & Write and Read only key of the standard one to move already connected peers over to the Advanced folder and secondly to ensure that new peers can connect by these keys? Or isn't this possible? tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatMarko Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Standard folders use "keys" - Advanced folders use "links" - they're totally different. You'd need to remove the standard folder, re-add it as an advanced folder, copy its sharing link (either Read & Write or Read Only), and distribute this link to the other devices you wish to sync with.

tjl Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Thanks the explanation. I see, there is then no practicable procedure, which works without noticing peers elsewhere to reapply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
