File Backup provides a more streamlined process than the the Sync Tool for backing up, downloading, and synchronizing files in Online File Folder. For information on upgrading, see Installing File Backup.

The first time you launch File Backup, if you already used the Sync Tool to create syncs, File Backup imports them and creates matching Backups or Syncs for you.

This does not affect the functioning of the Sync Tool. If you want, you can continue to use the Sync Tool. However, if you upgrade to File Backup, we recommend you remove any active syncs from the Sync Tool so as not to create confusion.
