    How to synchronize without synchronizing?


    Hello All,

    I have a folder on a network drive and I want to have that folder and contents accessible on a local drive via a folder, but I do not want to synchronize the files.

    Rather, I want to have a "faux folder" in the local drive which, when opened, shows all of the files and new files can be saved to it as though said files were actually on the local drive...but the files are actually saved to and maintained on the network drive only.

    I did this with a previous version of Windows, but forgot how.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,


    :)

    GPU-Z Shared Memory Synchronization

    I looked but couldn't find any definitive info on how the shared memory of GPU-Z is synchronized. I see a few named mutex's associated with the process:
    DBWinMutex
    ZonesLockedCacheCounterMutex
    ZonesCacheCounterMutex
    Access_I2C_Sequence
    Access_*_I2C

    Also see that there is a LONG in the shared memory structure that may be used for synchronization. Specifically, I'm looking to read sensor data. Any information on how synchronization is done or documentation would be much appreciated. Also, I have found a project that reads the shared memory but does anyone know if that was based off of documentation or was that reverse engineered?
     
  3. Synchronize Folders


    Is there any simple way to synchronize folders on the same drive? On two different drives on same PC? On two different networked PCs?
