Support for Sync.com - any experiences using Boxcryptor with Sync.com?

bubble70

Hi all,

just curious whether anyone on this forum has any experience running Boxcryptor with the zero-knowledge sync.com cloud storage service?

I have been trying to get both to work together this week without any luck so far.
It seems that the Sync.com desktop application will just hang after a while and never reach more than 50% synced, after a while it just keeps indexing over and over again.

Anyway, I would be happy to hear from anyone having tried this as well, as I realize there is no official bc support for sync.com yet.

Hopefully it is somewhere on the roadmap, along with 2FA authentication for the login process:-)

Best Greetings

Hi bubbl70,

this seems to be a problem of Sync.com, as Boxcryptor (Desktop) is designed to be an on-top solution for "local" folders on your hard drive. This local folder can be synced to the cloud by any cloud storage client which, and that's the important part, does not know anything about Boxcryptor. Thus, syncing encrypted files does not differ from syncing unencrypted files.

By the way I just tested out Syncing encrypted and unencrypted files (only about 70 files to be honest) and after some indexing time, it synced flawlessly.

Best regards,
Florian
