[QSYNC] What is this folder?

Post by fael097 »

what is this entry in my explorer side bar?

Image

it leads to an empty folder with simply a shortcut to my actual qsync shared folder.
-is this useless?
-how can I remove it?
-it's saved to my C: drive and apparently I can't move it anywhere else. is it possible to move it somehow?
-does it sync to anything?
-where is it coming from? it says /home/.Qsync, but there's no such folder on my NAS. yes I have hidden files enabled. I can only visualize it's contents on my File Station, but not browsing my nas from my computer.

I don't understand what this thing is at all, makes no sense.

It is the default Qsync folder pair. I removed this pair and set up my own which is how everyone else does I suspect.

That's what I did, but that icon doesn't disappear, which triggers my OCD.

I either want to know what exactly it's for, so I can use it, or how to remove that icon from sight

It opens the "folders" that I have synced and what I would expect.
I would ignore it but if it disturbs you, then I'd open a call.
