The default location of this cache folder is listed belo :

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\FileCloudSyncData
  • Mac OSX: {HomeDir}\FileCloudSyncData
  • Linux: {HomeDir}\FileCloudSyncData


This can be changed by overriding the syncclientconfig.xml file

The file is available at the following location

  • Windows: %APPDATA%\FileCloudSync\syncclientconfig.xml
  • Mac OSX: {HomeDir}\FileCloudSync\syncclientconfig.xml
  • Linux: {HomeDir}\FileCloudSync\syncclientconfig.xml
