Greetings, folks.

I have already asked and received great information from the community in regards how one could place their TRX in Dropbox and then have that file used by multiple systems. (found here).

While this is great information, my concern is the implementation described to me is not officially supported by the TR Team. I must maintain my data at all times as I have worked my entire process into Thinking Rock as the management tool for multiple products, projects, and staff. I am understandably concerned about using the TRX data file for anything that has not been given the official "OK" for support.

Thanks to the very smart people in this community, I do have a viable way of putting my TRX file in Dropbox and using it with multiple systems. It works and have had no issues. But this implementation, from all that I can see, is based on excellent technical know-how and trial and error and not a process in which the TR staff have given a blessing.

Does the TR staff care to provide an "official" step-by-step instructions or provide an "official" OK to directions already provided? Knowing that the TR team is supporting the process will go a long way with me, and most likely, others.

My thanks!

I do use Dropbox myself for "syncing" my file between computers and I have never had any problems.

I will recommend that at least on one of your computer you specify a non-dropbox folder for recovery and backup files. See following demo for recovery and backup preferences:

Great to hear, Claire!

What files do you put in Dropbox?
