There are no-limits to the kinds of files that you can add to your backup services.
- audio
- movie

How to sync with SugarSync
When you set up SugarSync for the first time, it shows a folder tree of everything on your hard drive and lets you choose which items to sync to online storage. Your files are located on a cloud host but SugarSync additionally puts a link on your PC to quickly drag and drop files or add them. The drive is known as your “Magic Briefcase”, that will be immediately included as a file under “Documents” or “My Documents”.
You are able to decide to copy individual files, folders or your entire program.
- There’s a Deleted Document Folder in SugarSync which you can retrieve and restore any of your accidentally deleted files
Protected folders
It lets you keep as many as 12 versions (it deletes the oldest one when you hit 13) of a folder, with a new one created on a set schedule: daily, every three days, weekly, every two weeks, and monthly. There’s also an option to run it just once if you want to create a duplicate copy of an existing backup folder. So for example, if you specified SugarSync to save 12 versions on a monthly schedule, it creates backups of that folder for a year, with a month’s worth of differences between each one.
