Recently we saw how Microsoft was betting on the cloud with Cloud PC. It is clear that Azure has a great weight in the American company as a method to enhance its ecosystem. And one of the possibilities offered by the cloud is to have all our data synchronized regardless of the device we use.
Go from laptop to phone, tablet or simply switch between multiple computers and always have files, images, documents, settings and even bookmarks and passwords at hand so we don't notice the change.This is something we can do easily and simply by following these steps.
Synchronize files on different computers
The process to have the files synchronized between several Windows 10 computers is very easy to carry out. To achieve this, OneDrive, Microsoft's cloud storage service is a basic tool And if we don't want to synchronize large amounts of data, the 5 GB they offer with the basic account may suffice.
"Here it is about determining which OneDrive folders we want to be synchronized on the PC. To do this, simply do double click on the OneDrive icon on the taskbar and once in the new window search for Settings "
In the options menu we must click on Account, and inside search and click on Choose folders This will be where we can choose which folder we want to be synchronized and mark them on all the computers we want to use. In this way, the data will be the same on all computers."
"Another option that may interest us is that of Backup copy within the OneDrive configuration and that allows us to keep system folders synchronized . Thus we can always have directories like Desktop, Documents or Images"
In addition, we can synchronize system settings on each computer where we sign in with our Microsoft account. In this sense we will have to enter Settings within the system and once inside look for the section Accounts "
"It will be there where we will have access to the option Synchronize configuration and in this way select the Windows configurations that we want to take to each computer in which we log in with our account."
In addition, remember that you can also export passwords, bookmarks and favorites regardless of the browser you use (Edge, Chrome or Firefox) . We have already seen how to do it on other occasions and the only precaution is that we must log in with the same Google account on each computer so that the passwords are always updated between devices.
