  1. Does One drive use briefcase technology?


    Can I set the "Always keep on this device" setting on the same file on 2 different devices?


    If I can, let's say I have 2 devices, A and B


    The files are all sychronised on February 1st


    On February 2nd I worked on the file on device A. I have no internet, so I did not sync


    On February 3rd I worked on the file on device B. I synched. So the OneDrive file on the cloud is not dated February 3rd


    When I go back to A and sync, does the file on device A gets update to the latest version, hence losing all the work I did on device A on February 2nd? Or does the system "briefcase" the file and INCORPORATE the changes I did on device A to the February 3rd version?


    I hope the scenario is clear.

    :)

    Hi, sorry your briefcase was stolen. *chuckle

    I suggest the following with no guarantee as to whether it works (I can't try it in the CU as I use the AU).
    The relevant reg file is provided as a zipped download.
    Further, if it works now, there's no guarantee it would continue to do so in future builds.

  3. synch Briefcase files

    Hi,

    Briefcase is a special folder in the Windows operating system that supports a simple file synchronization between itself and another folder. However, this is no longer available in Windows 10. You can consider using alternative options such as using OneDrive.
    Just store anything on your OneDrive folder and it's automatically available on your other devices that are synchronized to your OneDrive account.

    Regarding your concern about Windows briefcase, we need additional details so that we can provide the next steps you can take to resolve the issue. Kindly provide the answers to the questions below:

    • How did you enable the briefcase option in your Windows 10 computer?
    • How do you usually access the briefcase folder in your computer?
    • Which version and build of Windows 10 do you have installed.

    We look forward to your response to our queries.
