Syncing a specific file/folder on your PC to the cloud

[danyjr]

Hi there,

I'm having an issue with syncing a specific file/folder on cloud.

I use Skype and I would like my chat history to be saved so in case my PC breaks down I have the chats saved somewhere I can recover on a new PC for example. However Skype doen't have a cloud storage and your chats are saved on your hard drive in :\Users\AppData\Roaming\Skype folder as a .db file.

Now I do understand that there are cloud storage services such as Dropbox, OneDrive, etc. but with these apps you can only share files which are transferred into the app's specific folder, not any folder on your PC.

Is there a way to do this?

Using Windows 10 Anniversary Update Pro x64.

Thanks in advance.

Make a bat file to copy that file to your cloud location

But I will need to run that bat file manually. I would prefer if there was an automatic daily sync so something like that.

Your Skype history is online already. Log in to https://web.skype.com/en/ and have a look

I'm afraid that is only true to chats within a month and Skype deletes them automatically from the cloud afterwards i.e. any chats you've had older than a month will not be accessible on other devices
