Is there a way to sync files without adding them to the DB folder?

[Puda]

I was using Amazon Drive and it's now defunct. Amazon was allowing me to simply select all the folders (on my computer) I wanted to sync with my online drive. I am not seeing the option on DB. Looks like I literally need to add all the folders I want to sync to the Dropbox folder first except for the "Manage backups" ones but it doesn't allow me to select specific files/folders. Most of the files I need to back up are on a different drive. Am I missing something?

Hi @Puda 

No, youre not missing anything I'm afraid. That is how Dropbox works - everything needs putting inside of the Dropbox folder to sync. It has no link/relationship with anything else outside of that directory.

Thanks so much for your answer! Too bad! Missing Amazon Drive 😞
