Syncing files? Basic Qs
Been using and liking GTMP for a while - my company gave it to me so that my office PC is a host, and I can see it from home using the GTMP client app. Very nice. Just discovered the syncing ...

Hi glnzglnz,
This support article covers the basics: How do I sync my files?
- File Sync is only between 2 Windows PCs
- It is run manually by you during a GoToMyPC session and is displayed on screen while it runs
- You can tell GoToMyPC how to handle different file versions with the same name before syncing
- Syncing will take time and how long it takes will vary depending on the amount of data you are syncing and available bandwidth
- Syncing is bidirectional, so changes to either folder are recognized. If you delete a file from one folder and then run the sync again, the file will be copied back. In order to delete a file you need to delete it from both sync locations
- Selecting a One Drive folder will work, but it would make more sense to just sign into the same One Drive account on both computers
- The Repeat a Recent File Sync shortcut displays a list of the last 3 file syncs, which saves you the step of navigating to the individual folders on your host and client computers
Thanks, GlennD.
But please continue down my list of questions - can you advise about some of those additional issues?
