    Windows 7 Briefcase Alternative


    Does anyone know of a Windows 7 briefcase alternative (for Windows 10) that operates exactly the same? I am not sure that I can sufficiently explain why it worked so well for my specific application, but the ability to sync individual files across multiple users and computers and open/edit those files directly from within the briefcase folder worked incredibly well. I have checked out a bunch of sync software and none of them fit my intended use. I might just have to accept that the best I will get is to copy/paste files from a PC back to our backup server.

    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.

    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.

    briefcase alternatives for creator

    Been usinig briefcase for years. No cloud access at work. Thumbdrive is the solution. No longer works with Creator update. Wondering what people are using [if anything] with Creator. Please point me in the right direction.
    Creator update was quite smooth. Had to abandon it and halt updates over the briefcase issue.
    TIA
