Recently, we learned just how vital a role Amazon plays in running the Internet. We will be introducing additional sync preference options in our next release.”

That being said, we have heard feedback from customers that they want more choice and ability to control sync preferences. 'This is standard industry behavior and impacts less than 2% of our current customer base. “If a customer has multiple PCs with the Amazon Drive desktop client installed, the expected behavior is to sync down content across all devices,' Amazon's statement said. And in a statement to USA TODAY, Amazon admitted it needs to make some changes. Otherwise, you'll be out of room quick.Īmazon tech support reps told us this was a common issue. Again, go to the web app to make sure it's not been checked. However, watch out when you create a new folder within Drive for backup, say, 'iPhone photos 2017.' Because when you do that, Amazon by default automatically decides to sync that folder, without asking your permission. Anyway I hope this is taken as constructive criticism as I’m only saying what I see from what I just read, and if you want something more up to date then you should check out the handheld PC scene which has really fired up.The fix? Open up the preferences tab of the computer app often, and look at your sync folders. At least set one of your desktops to the more modern versions of software so that you’re up to date on an everyday regular user basis at least, otherwise you will become another dinosaur offering pointless outdated advice which can all honestly be done for free without the paid option. tomsguide used to be the goto place for cutting edge hardware (and software) news but I feel like I fell into a dusty old book containing knowledge that may have been interesting and relevant once a long time ago but is of little to no importance today. Sorry but I’m wondering why you have not upgraded to Windows 11 yet? I should think as someone writing technological posts that you should at least acknowledge and recognise that most users will pretty much use what is on their machine as standard and currently that is the most up to date software out there, Windows 11.
