On Windows, how to specify the number of hours to pause the sync?

[MadsManu]

In Linux,  there's an option to pause the sync for 4 hours, but in Windows there's no such option. The problem is that each time that I compile it will start syncing and sometimes it hasn't finished when I recompile (I know, I'm lazy that way). So I don't want to sync every single compilation.

Four hours is perfect, because that's the shift length in my office. When I go to lunch, the sync starts. When I leave in the afternoon, the sync starts.

Is there a way in WIndows, maybe tweaking the registry, to create a custom sync delay?

Hey @MadsManu, thanks for posting here today! 

On a Windows device the options you should be getting when trying to pause the app are: 30 minutes, 1 hour, Until tomorrow, or Indefinitely. You can see more about that here. 

Is that what you see on your end too? 

On my end, I can't share a specific way to change the registry in order to change that, but if any user of our Community is aware on how that can be done, they're more than free to share their tips and tricks here. 

Let me know more!

Hello Megan, those are the options that I see.

For me, two are too short and two are too long 😁. I think that the app would be more useful if it had an extra option to, on the fly, ask the number of hours you want to pause.

Thanks you!

Let's see if someone else knows how to do it.
