Sync Folders Outside OneDrive

SyncFoldersOutsideOneDrive.md

1. Find the Address of the folder you want to be synced. (ie. G:\Games\). Copy it.

2. Find the OneDrive location you wish for it to sync to. Hold shift and right click. On the context menu, click open command window here.

3. In the command window type mklink /j "YourCustomFolderName" G:\Games\ (G:\Games\ is the address of your original folder).

This is like a shortcut that tells any programs that look there to look at another directory. This will sync anything inside the address you tell it to the folder created in a onedrive directory
