Win10 new briefcase option recovery method

briefcase & rdquo; is used for offline synchronization of data, native support in Win7 and previous XP systems. Users can save the modified file to the USB flash drive, or connect the two computers to each other. At this time, “Briefcase” can automatically synchronize the latest improvements of the file. But in the era of Win8.1/Win10, Microsoft believes that the "briefcase" has been removed, and this feature has been removed, especially the strong intervention of OneDrive in Windows10, which has squeezed out the survival of the traditional "briefcase". space. However, if it is not connected to the Internet, it is nonsense to synchronize through OneDrive. At this time, “Briefcase” can still play a role.

In fact, this feature has not completely disappeared, we can retrieve it by adding a registry item. The method is very simple. Copy and paste the following code into Notepad, save as “all files (*.*)”, and the file extension is “.reg”; (as shown below, the file name can be free). This method is also applicable to Windows 8/Windows 8.1 systems.

The code is as follows (not including the top and bottom of the "=” divider):
