Hello,

how does the sync is working?

I have 3 folders, which I want to sync: folder1 folder2 folder3

So I have to add a new mount folder and copy this 3 folder in there? But did I have then the files twice on my HDD?

Or should I start pCloudcc 3 times and mount the 3 original folder?

Thank you!

update: the mount folder is from "pCloud.fs" ... so all Files are stored in "pCloud.fs"? Where is the location on my linux system?

It´s because of local backups ... If I add a mount point and copy from one folder all in this pCloud mount folder, then I have the files twice on my hdd, right?

Mount should be in your home directory,

mount | grep pCloud.fs

synced folders are only cached in the pCloud.fs directory, so not everything is duplicated. On the graphical client I have 5GB of on disk cache.
