Midnight Mick Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I'm looking at syncing my user folder in Windows but do not need to sync the hidden AppData folder that is there. How would I achieve this please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekim501 Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 What I did was created a sub folder called “Profile” then moved all my user folders like “My Documents” and “Desktop” into that “Profile” sub folder. Then I just synced the “Profile” folder. If you do that on all the systems, the users profile will sync across all computers without the AppData folder.
