Dear FolderShare user, We’re contacting you to let you know what’s next for FolderShare, and to make you aware of some important changes. In December, we plan to announce a product called Windows Live Sync. You can think of it as FolderShare 2.0. It’s going to look familiar and offer the same great features, plus:
A huge part of Sync’s success story depends on FolderShare users like you. When Sync releases, FolderShare goes into retirement. That means your FolderShare software will stop working and will ask you to upgrade to Sync. Once you do, Sync will automatically rebuild your personal folders. We expect a lot of new users when Sync is released, so if you can’t sign in right away, please give it a little time. Here’s the part you need to pay attention to: Sync will not be able to rebuild your shared libraries. If you have a lot of shared libraries, you should hop over to the FolderShare website while it’s still available and copy all that information. You’ll need it to rebuild your shared libraries in Sync. Thanks for being a FolderShare user! We’re excited about delivering an even better file-synchronization experience to customers like you. We hope you’ll come along as we move forward with Windows Live Sync. Sincerely, The Windows Live Sync (formerly FolderShare) team # – # – # Yup, it worked relatively problem free. SO we have to screw around with it! Can’t have that. AND, we can’t have a seamless transition, you have to redo all you’ve done with it. And, they wonder why people HATE Microsoft? I’ve started the painful process of emigrating. Digging that parasite out from under my saddle. My MCBA was a my first step away on my way to Linux. Others would be well advised to do the same. You have no control of what “they”, (Microsoft, Google, or the “cloud computing providers”), do to you! That’s just unacceptable. # # # # # |
