How to backup to cloud storage?

Question

Backup

I noticed that all the cloud storages that I used Dropbox, Google Disk, Yandex Disk on the computer create a folder and synchronization occurs only in this folder. What if I do NOT want to move files to a cloud storage folder, but still send files to the cloud?
The task is to make a copy of the programData \ solo9 directory in dropbox or any other cloud with any change.

Answer 1

I did something similar - only Yandex Disk can work normally with symlinks - i.e. you make symlinks from the necessary folders to the Yandex Disk folder. Everything else with this scheme of work requires restarting the client after updating the files in the folder.

Transfer the folder to cloud storage and link to the old location.

Answer 3

Use any specialized cloud backup utilities.

Answer 4

Enable storage synchronization in the programData\solo9 directory
Or mount Yandex.Disk using webdavfs and copy your programData\solo9 directory there

Answer 5

In Yandex disk, there is such a setting item "Leave only in the cloud".
We choose and everything lies in the right place.
