How can I exclude file extensions form being synced? I have a mega big temp file (temp database log file) and it slows down my entire laptop. K
I have been having problems with dropbox causing both WinEdt and Visual Studio to fail repeatedly. The problem is that dropbox locks file temporarily, and then WinEdt fails to Latex my file, or Visual Studio fails to compile. This is getting to be a major problem for me.
One way around this is if I could exclude filenames by file type from dropbox syncing. For Visual Studio it is always the PDB file (which is pointless to backup), and for WinEdt it is always the PRJ file (which is nice to back up, but certainly not crucial to back up).
Dropbox should either add the ability to sync by filename extension, or stop locking files on me, or better, do both.
You need to submit a Ticket ASAP.
((Are you using smart sync?))
I stumbled across this thread when looking for the exact same feature.
I have requested this feature to the Dropbox Businees Ideas board:
Go and vote for it and hopefully we will see it added soon!
