Re: Recover from a mistake to use Backup

I need to sync my Documents folder in real time with the rest of my computers

Howdy.

Installed desktop ver. 197.4.7571 on my Windows 10 desktop machine today, and made a mistake to set my online Documents folder to BACKUP. Now the files that are in that folder are on my Windows 10 desktop machine as they were before, but can not be accessed from my Win 10 laptop. I need them to be real time sync, so how do I recover those files in Backup back so that they are real time syncing on both my Desktop and Laptop machines?

A nightmare indeed! If you find another app that works the way Dropbox did before the update, please let us know. I need a solution for this. @Ravip

@jsauser11  Is the Downloads folder also syncing correctly with the other devices?. I could manage some of my folders in the Dropbox folder, but the big problems I have are the Downloads folder and Desktop folder.
