allow synchronization of the folder on one PC but not on the others
Hi, I need to ensure that the folders shared with the team are not downloaded to colleagues' PCs, but that they are downloaded and saved locally only on the PC where the Dropbox Business administration account resides. How can I do? I need it to be downloaded onto that PC to be able to make a local backup of the online content in case an internet connection is not available. From what I read, if I set manual synchronization in the specific account, I should be able to do it, but I'm not sure it's the correct procedure and, above all, I'm not sure I understand how to do it correctly. Thank you
