vi10 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 As per the title I wish to sync user folders between pc's I have checked the ignorelist which filters desktop.ini, thumbs.db etc. If I want to prevent program shortcuts being synced, what do I need to add to the ignorelist to prevent these being synced across devices?

Remirus Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 vi10, you can add this string into IgnoreList: *.lnk It's better to do that on all peers, because if you ignore it only on one peer and you have other two peers they will synchronize shortcuts with each other, but the peer where you ignored it won't synchronize shortcuts.

vi10 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thank you! When you say all peers, you meen I should add the: *.lnk To each devices ignorelist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remirus Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Yes, you need to do that on all peers. And if you have several folder, you need to to add it for each folder (because IgnoreList is different for each folder). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
