Folder Name on Shares

Shares Same Folder Names for All

when sharing a folder, all team members must use the same folder name.

Folder Name when joining a share

We use the same folder name: Here !team

Folder Name to use in Share
Folder Name to use in Share

.

Hence we are able to access from website directly into Windows Explorer.

  • Example syntax inside the website: file:///H:/Sync/!Team

Using Local Explorer.

Remove Folder for master

After renaming of the Team folder, some files remained duplicated.

We use AntiTwin because files have been moved to different folders.

Step1: Run Antitwin
Typically using paramfiles > 100KB

and delete all files that exist in the old team folder (here TeamNew)

via Select Deletable Folders

 

Step2:

Option A: Explorer Copy Files from old folder into new Folder

Then we move all files from the old folder (here Teamnew) into the new one.

Using the option: Skip, Do NOT override

 

.

Option B: Use Total Commander

We see that no files would be copied from the old folder.
Hence the new folder has everything.

There is only the .DS_Store file that should belong to the ignore list on Total Commander,

 

 

.

Ignore List Total Commander
It now includes also the syncinfo file

.

Step3: Wait until sync.com is in sync.
Step4: Delete old Folder

Best delete on the web frontend.
