Local Files Onedrive

I have a question if it possible to access my local library from onedrive cloud storage for 2 machines.

I have single pro license and my main work pc has the local library set to read from my onedrive assest folder which is on C drive.

My laptop which i use for working at home has the same onedrive assets folder but on my D drive.

Currently i can assess the local library on the laptop no problems (my 1st install was on the laptop) but when i try and setup the local folder on the main work pc and direct it to my onedrive folder the assets wont show.

I am asuming it cause of the drive letter miss match. Is there a work around for this issue? I would prefer to kept the local asset file on onedrive instead of having 2 separate local files (one on each pc) and migrating them each time i update my assets.

Hi, just for info, I have a similar setup to you, but I use Pcloud instead of Onedrive, my library is synchronized on a P: harddrive and I can use it seamlessly at work and at home.

i have installed d5 on an external hard drive.

but it is possible to make a particion. i wuold do that now btw.

Make a partition of your C drive. D drive fro D5 (get it)
and keep your onedrive on the C.

I do save everything on the C drive. in my onedrive. becasue all is in cloud.
just last week my SSD was corrupt, al my files where in the cloud. so nothing missing. onedrive is 1 TB so all my ongoing projects are in the cloud.

Hi Maslu

the work pc local asset library is set to
C:\Users\MoniqueTartaglia\Best Retail\Shared - Documents\BEST & CO\13 ASSETS & TEXTURES\D5\D5 WorkSpace

and the laptop is
D:\Best Retail\Shared - Documents\BEST & CO\13 ASSETS & TEXTURES\D5\D5 WorkSpace

Just an update for those interested

I used my 3rd activation to test on another pc i have at home. I set the asset library the same as my laptop so

D:\Best Retail\Shared - Documents\BEST & CO\13 ASSETS & TEXTURES\D5\D5 WorkSpace

and it seems to work. Like pxlntwrk suggested.

When i get in the office i re-direct the work pc onedrive from the C drive to D drive match. Hopefully that will fix the issue.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
