If you want to know about how this new Encrypted folder option works, read more on this post. Click the down arrow icon next to Add Folder and pick one of 2 options to sync folders (3 options if you have a Pro account), either Standard folder or Encrypted folder that can be shared to read-only nodes to provide an offsite snapshot of your data without providing direct access.

Choose the name carefully as this cannot be changed later.
The first thing you do after the installation is to choose a name to show when you send and receive folders. During the installation, you have the option to run BitTorrent Sync as Windows service so it runs automatically in the background regardless of whether a user is logged in, which is particularly useful for server use. Installationĭownload the installation file from the website and install it on the devices you want to set up the sync. With the first two, when someone clicks or scans the link, they're instructed to download and install Sync so they can access the files.When we speak of BitTorrent, we all think about BT downloads, don’t we? But do you know they actually also have a pretty cool product, called BitTorrent Sync, that lets you sync your files between multiple computers across different multiple platforms? And because it uses the P2P (peer-to-peer) distributed technology that is very similar to the version used by uTorrent and BitTorrent, there is no space limitation on how big the storage you will need to sync the files. To share files you share this key using one of three methods: a clickable HTTPS link, a QR code, or enter the key directly into the program on another device. This is then used to share folders/directories. To use it, you simply install the program and create a My Devices Key. It does this by leveraging BitTorrent's distributed P2P protocol.
Sync is built around a simple idea: Create a simple network tool for people to move files directly between devices without the use of a cloud. While the company still supports the protocol, it's also been moving into more business-friendly programs such as Sync. BitTorrentWhen you think of BitTorrent, you almost certainly think about the wildly popular Peer-to-Peer (P2P) anonymous file-protocol and the sites, such as Pirate Bay, that use it for TV and movie sharing. Sync 2.0 promises simple, fast, and secure file-sharing without a cloud.
