Last updated
Koofr pairs cloud Vaults with local sync folders. The desktop app mirrors chosen Vaults to directories you pick per machine, while mobile apps browse and favorite for offline. The cloud copy arbitrates every conflict.
Exact paths may vary by version and OS since you choose the roots. Keep sync selections deliberate; mirroring everything onto small SSDs fills them silently. External drives work when mount points stay stable across reboots. Selective sync beats full mirrors on small disks. Versioning catches the rest.
Where Koofr stores this, by platform
%userprofile%\Koofr\
Vaults mirror to roots you choose per machine. Exact paths may vary by version. Keep selections deliberate on small disks; conflicts keep both copies.
~/Koofr/
Same Vault model as Windows with user-chosen roots. Reach Library with Go to Folder in Finder for logs. Cloud versions restore from the web app.
~/Koofr/
Same sync model as other platforms. Stable mount points matter for external roots. Version history lives server-side.
Frequently asked questions
How do I set up sync on a new PC?
Open Koofr settings and pick local folders per synced Vault on the new machine. Files download on demand or in full per your sync mode. Conflicting edits keep both copies with conflict names for manual merge.
Can I recover deleted files?
Yes with version history per file in the cloud. Restore from the web app before local copies propagate damage. Ransomware protection snapshots add a second safety net on paid plans.
