    To whomever at MS decided to kill the Briefcase .... well ... has anybody anywhere


    been smart enough to come up with an exact replica of the Briefcase? Am very angry right now at having lost some content tonight that I wouldn't have lost had not smug designers/programmers not killed the Briefcase. Somebody somewhere has to be able to replicate it. To be honest, I'd pay for it. It was perfect, except it wasn't complex enough apparently for people in charge.

    I use FreeFileSync, which isn't the same as not needing a connection. And there was a hiccup with the laptop, flash drive, and a file that didn't take and I've lost and can't find, and am really mad. Windows 10 in general - it flat killed one computer of mine - has not been a positive.

    Have been extremely frustrated for a few years now about the Briefcase, and if I had the skills, I'd build a Briefcase for free and give it a certain name that, well, never mind. MS would be stunned at how many people used it.

    I'd be happy with a Briefcase that had ads or something, anything. Allegedly smart people don't get why the Briefcase was efficient. Noooo, the Cloud, etc. isn't the same thing.

    :)

  2. Briefcase

    I am using Windows10 and became since last week after updating the Briefcase is not working. During search, learned that MS has completely done away with 'Briefcase' feature from Windows10. But, some are suggesting that it can be back with some
    registry thing and giving some links for those files to be downloaded. Can I do that?

    Looking for answer.

    Regards,

  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.

    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.
