How to use cool disk effectively and rationally?

1. Sync any folder

After the cool disk is installed, you will usually build a cool disk folder on your computer and put the files in this folder to sync. To resolve the problem of synchronizing other folders, you need to use the Junction/mklink tool to resolve them.

For Windows XP users, Microsoft provides a gadget junction that creates and deletes a junction directory in an NTFS system that is exactly the same as the contents of the original directory, and if you modify the contents of any of these folders, The other will change accordingly, the junction directory is an attribute of the NTFS file system, but Windows XP does not have the tool to operate it, need to download an EXE file here to use. Internal support has been supported under Windows 7 systems, and the command is Mklink, using the same method and junction.

For example, we can execute junction "e:my Documents" "E: My cool disk My Documents", which means creating a junction directory called E:my documents, pointing to E: My cool disk My Documents, The command completes in an instant, and two directories are identical so that we can use E: my cool disk, My Documents, to replace the directory in My Documents.

For the cool disk, can only follow the command as above to build the junction directory, but not in my cool disk directory to create junction directory, after my test, my cool disk directory inside the junction directory can only sync once, and then modify the files are not synchronized, can not achieve synchronous update.
